Blue Moon, August, 2012
Well, “once in a blue moon” is here today. Today is the second full moon in August. It doesn’t happen very often. Many times on a blue moon, you will see it grey and white. Today’s just might be blue due to the forest fires. Historically, there are blue moons after large volcano eruptions.
My first memory of Blue Moon is Frank Sinatra crooning it with style. Today, we will be able to watch the Blue moon from our computers if you wish. In 1945, the term Blue moon appeared in Sky and Telescope magazine.
Historically, there are 3 full moons in any season and each are named. Due to the particles ascending into the atmosphere from our wild fires, some may see a red moon. Whether blue or red, Mother Earth is giving us a beautiful show today and tonight.
the moon is just stunning overhead tonight and showed up almost a deep orange in pictures I took.
That I read may be due to particles from the forest fires.
Happy blue Moon to you. I posted Elvis ‘s version of Blue moon today. I am waiting for it to rise here in California
It has risen here in Ohio and it is beautiful. A woman’s ever present consultation.
