Full moon Wednesday night
 
Hi,
From what I can gather, the moon is at

Feb. 18, 3:36 a.m. EST – Full Snow Moon: Usually the heaviest snows fall in this month. Hunting becomes very difficult, and hence to some tribes this was known as the Full Hunger Moon.

We essentially have no interesting weather this far south so I sometimes honor the moon. The full moon always moves me with awe and wonder.

weird

i get my moon dates from here:

http://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/phase/phases2001.html

it indicate full moon Friday 18th at 8.36 UT which is 9.36am my time, and 3.36am eastern. so folks in the US would get a better "fullness" viewing Thursday night, the later the better.

i saw it friday eve, only 11 ours after peak fullness, looked nice and rotund and pearly and what not. :)

atually i went out and played in the park and played to it. i played moon shadow for the moon. and sisters of the moon too. meant to play sleeping satellite but got fatigued... i am out of shape generally but also vocally due to the repeat rounds of illness.

A bright full moon on a dark, clear night is always an impressive sight, but did you know that each full moon of the year has its own name? Sometimes, the full moon of each month even has more than one name, all of which originated in antiquity.

Full moon names date back to Native Americans living in what is now the northern and eastern United States. Those tribes of a few hundred years ago kept track of the seasons by giving distinctive names to each recurring full moon. Their names were applied to the entire month in which each occurred.

A free widget is available from Yahoo...that shows the moon each day on your wallpaper...I have one.

First you download the widget engine, then the others you want.
Hubby has several... like one showing your RAM use and also
