A Blue Moon is an “extra” full moon that occurs in the same month. Or, it is what occurs when you get four full moons in one season. A Black Moon is just the opposite, an extra new moon to occur within the same month as another, or when four new moons happen in the same season. It can also refer to a month in which there is no full moon, which can only occur in February, as the lunar cycles run over 29.5 days. A Dark Moon is what you call the waning crescent just before the new moon and the start of the waxing phase. The duration ranges from 1.5 to 3.5 days. Full Moons January - Wolf Moon/Cold Moon/Spirit Moon February - Snow Moon/Hunger Moon March - Worm Moon/Sap Moon April - Pink Moon/Fish Moon/Egg Moon/Sprouting Grass Moon May - Flower Moon/Milk Moon/Corn Planting Moon June - Strawberry Moon/Rose Moon/Hot Moon July - Buck Moon/Thunder Moon August - Sturgeon Moon/Green Corn Moon September - Corn Moon/Harvest Moon/Barley Moon October - Hunter’s Moon/Travel Moon/Dying Moon November - Beaver Moon/Frost Moon December - Cold Moon/Long Nights Moon Why are they named? They are essentially nicknames that were traditionally used by Native Americans to track the seasons. Used as timing for growing and harvesting crops, keeping track of when certain animals would be around for hunting, and so on. Not all tribes used the same names at for these moons, or even count the same number of seasons. The names for the moons are largely localized to what grows, what animals are around, and how the mild or harsh the weather is in that area. Some tribes may only use a few names, where others may use the same name at a different time of year. Each tribe had their preferences. Colonial Americans later adopted some of the Full Moon names from the Native Americans and applied it to their own calendar. Where is the Harvest Moon??? Well, the Harvest Moon can occur in one of two months, September or October. It is the Full Moon that occurs the closest to the Autumn Equinox. It is named so, because the closer to the equinox, the later the sun sets, thus giving farmers more time to harvest their crops. What about the Supermoon? This occurs when the (New or Full) Moon is at it’s closest point in orbit to Earth, when it’s at it’s perigee. The Moon appears much larger than normal, and moreso when it’s lower in the horizon when it has just started to rise. This can happen at any point in the year. (NOTE) - we have 3 full supermoons occuring in a row in 2020… March, April, and May. image credit thebohomystic.tumblr.com

if I’d stop thinking
i could fall in love with life
and stop wondering why
you would want me
how it’d feel high up in a tree
singing like a lark
maybe wouldn’t push you far
but i keep wondering
and all this wishful thinking
will you go
like the shining sunsets
and the disappearing snow

Purple
for you
it was not any colour
it coloured your favourite things
your favourite lipstick, flower and shirt
for you
it was not any colour
it coloured your bad memories
the hickeys he created, but also the bruises left on your soft skin
for you
it was your colour
but it stung and
it would always sting
purple
for you
like any other colour
just a colour

is this what it is
but oh my dear
is this what i feel
when in the woods we meet
my love for you, or just my fear
that i will break and fall too deep

jij was iets nieuws
zoals de morgen toen de vogels al zongen
zoals de middag en haar koele zomerbriesje
zoals de nacht die nog niet was begonnen
en zoals mijn bed, ooit zo leeg
nu jij zachtjes tegen mij aan wreef

you weren’t the one I dreamt of
you weren’t the one I dreamt of
but it’s past o clock
and i realise that this lock
has finally turned into dust
and soon returned as well my trust

as the holidays are really close I wanted to tell everyone who doesn't think of this period as a happy time, that it is okay to feel that way, it's okay that you may feel stressed, sad, anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, etc... but none of that means that you're not worthy enough because you are an amazing person and you are worth so many beautiful things
I'm proud of y'all

ik geloofde niet dat wij iets zouden worden. nog zo jong, zo naïef, geloven dat het juist was, niet nadenken over de gevolgen, we hielden van elkaar
maanden later was het over, maar in men hart denk ik nog steeds aan je

men ogen branden nog steeds
de tranen die ik huilde, lang geleden
de laatste keer dat ik je sprak
was het gister of was het even geleden
wanneer je me gewoon zo simpel brak
misschien is het al een maand geleden
dat je mijn naïve mij zonodig stak

He wouldn’t care about the art, he wouldn’t try to listen, and there wouldn’t be a beating heart but yet I loved how his touch made me feel alive, yet how it made me feel like a dying butterfly

Yes, I could take painkillers to numb the physical pain but it will never stop the emotional pain you put me through

I felt like poetry was all i had
Until you were the only thing I wrote about
- how i stopped doing what I loved doing the most
