Meteor shower on 13th & lunar eclipse on 20th

Thought everyone would like to know about these 2 days this month http://news.yahoo.com/s/space/20101208/sc_space/meteorshowerandtotallunareclipsetowowskywatchersthismonth

The eclipse is only visible from North America, though.

[Ragnar]

Still total cloud here, when it WAS visible.

[Crazy Healer Lady]

Fabulous! Thanks for sharing this. I would have missed them! Let's hope we're not clouded over both those days

[Kitsune]

I caught sight of these last month but well... I wasn't posting anything on here last month. Thanks for reminding me though. Any of our starstruck pagans here remember the significance of a Full Moon eclipsing within bare hours of solstice?

[Crazy Healer Lady]

Do tell Shall I get the restraints, or tell the local hospital to have a bit more security on premise?

[Ragnar]

Any one read "Day of the Triffids"?

[Librarian]

Any one read "Day of the Triffids"?

One can hope...

[Kitsune]

Actually, I'm not sure ... I'm going to be looking for more on it myself.

I realized yesterday that I really should care about full moon's/eclipses/other stuff for every celebration, but Yule is my favourite holiday. I'm pretty sure that is because I was born on a Winter Solstice.

I will let you know when I find out.

Until then, increase the security! (and let me know what day of the Triffids is? )

[Ragnar]

I'm pretty sure that is because I was born on a Winter Solstice.

Interesting. I was born Oktober and am convinced that is why I LOVE Autumn. (Fall to you lot. )

"Day of the Trifids", you SERIOUSLY do not know the book/film?

A meteor shower, which turned every one who saw it blind, set off these plants that chased and ate people. A bit like war of the worlds in wood.

[Librarian]

War of the Worlds? I would describe it more as "Night of the Zombie Sunflowers".

Ragnar:

Ever see Night of the Comet? http://movies.netflix.com/WiMovie/Night ... t/70061282

[Ragnar]

Ever see Night of the Comet?

Yes. But I am not a great fan of SF. In fact films of any sort really.

[Crazy Healer Lady]

Ah, it cleared up for a few hours near dusk, and then went right back to heavy rain. Boo! Ah well, we'll see the next one, which better be in drought season!

[Ragnar]

Don't talk to any strange plants.

[Librarian]

Does anyone know when the zombie apocalypse begins?
