Moon Lunar Lore

Lunistice: the point at which the moon has the greatest northing or southing during her monthly course. – Brewer’s “Dictionary of Phrase and Fable” … … it happens that the moon appears More swiftly to return to any sign Along the Zodiac, than doth the sun … ~ Lucretius, De rerum natura (On the Nature of Things). … How beautiful is night! A dewy freshness fills the silent air; No mist obscures; nor cloud, nor speck, nor stain, Breaks the serene of heaven: In full-orbed glory, yonder moon divine Rolls through the dark blue depths; Beneath her steady ray, the desert circle spreads Like the round ocean, girdled with the sky. – Robert Southey, “Thalaba” (i 1). • • • •
