waking and especially getting up this morning. Still dizzied from last night’s drinking excess, I
stumbled out of bed and froze in awed silence before my window. We all have seen countless full
moons but whenever I lie my gaze upon this full disk I can’t help but feel intensely excited and
find myself longing.. carving for something.
I know the picture is quite bad; especially the moon just appears as a big flash. I took it with my
mobile phone as I don’t possess a digital camera. But it should give you the idea how it looked
like, especially as the moon wasn’t high above the horizon and therefore HUGE!
During the drive to work I found myself wondering then, how you’re going to spend the full moon
day/night. For myself I prefer to walk to the bay here, as the sky above is not illuminated by the
cursed artificial city lights, at least one wouldn’t notice unless you turn away from the sea, facing the city.
Once at the shore I usually find myself a nice spot, I prefer to avoid going always to the same
place. There I make myself comfortable, which means settling down with beer, ipod, pocket pistol
filled with whisky and a joint. (disapproval for the last one is not recommended for your sake)
That’s about it. What follows is staring, admiring, and pondering until it gets too cold or the
unwelcome clouds are blocking the sight.
Speaking of which, for tonight (full moon’s peak is for GMT around 00:24 on the 5th) I’m worried
as it is still raining and the sky is grey as usual, but I keep my hopes up, as we usually see 4
seasons a day here, the only benefit living right next to the Atlantic Ocean.
So, what’s about your full moon day/night?
