Lunar Lore

Midsummer-Moon Madness: madness is supposed to be

affected by the moon, and to be aggravated by summer heat;

so it naturally follows that the full moon at midsummer is

the time when madness is most outrageous.

~ Brewer’s “Dictionary of Phrase and Fable.”

Among the leaves & the rolls of moonlight,

The moon, which weaves lace on the road-white

Among the winds, & among the flowers,

Our blithe feet wander – life is ours!

~Voltairine deCleyre , excerpt, “Love’s Ghost”
