Full Snow Moon


Tonight is the Full Snow Moon. Or Wolf Moon. Or Hunger Moon. Depends on who you are or what you prefer, I guess. Coldest moon of the year. Symbolically, I assume. A time when the summer's food is running low and hunting is most difficult. Not here. Migratory birds have come by the billions. Fishes swim the sea. I haven't guts to check my horoscope. Gave that up a long time ago. A full moon birthday. Monday, no less.

Here is an image I stumbled upon today, unremembered, lost. I have been working in the studio on encaustic projects. I made the first one I've liked yesterday. I figure with rent it has only cost me about $900. I'll sell it for $1,000 if anybody wants it. But it gives me some ideas and some confidence that I can do more. With time. And luck.

As Bukowski said, "The Days Run Away Like Wild Horses Over The Hills."

  1. It is quite a moon - horoscopes can be one hell of a waste of time :-)
    Enjoy the moonlight!

  5. Thank you for your birthday wishes. It was a quiet night and I was sleepy. No great adventures other than drinking a little to much of The Whiskey and foraying outside to have a look at the moon. As always. Your wishes were well received.
