This Friday many of you may see a 103 minute total Lunar Eclipse, billed as the longest eclipse in a century! It will be completely visible over Eastern Africa, and Central Asia, seen rising over South America, Western Africa, and Europe, and setting over Eastern Asia, and Australia. (Wikipedia)<\/p>\n

A month ago I snapped this photo (above) of the (almost) Full Moon reflected in a Swedish Lake, just after the Sun had dipped under the horizon for a few hours of Midsummer Twilight. There is something so peaceful and magical about Full Moons, especially if experienced out in Nature. We watched the sun go down, and the moon come up, as swans and loons glided by on the glassy lake.<\/p>\n

This time of year here in the Northern Hemisphere, many of us are seeking cooler temperatures at higher elevations (mountains) and higher latitudes. Sophie and I have been home from Sweden for a couple weeks now, but we are missing the lush northern forests and the dense wildlife those places hold. We went for a drive in our Colorado Rocky Mountains today, soaking up the colors of the rivers, trees, red rocks, and a rainbow in a rainstorm as we drove home.<\/p>\n

A lot of women I know will swear that they get a buzz during the Full Moon. I have friends who say they can’t sleep, and are full of energy during the Full Moon. Do you stay up late full of creative energy during these Lunar Eclipses and Full Moons? I am working on some quilt ideas inspired by my time in Sweden, and I plan to take advantage of the Lunar Buzz over the next several days.<\/p>\n
