Full Moon 12/21/10 Total Lunar Eclipse Gemini (click here)

Image
Astrologically an eclipse serves as an electrical connector. Various aspects link up depending on the birth chart and things happen. Lunar eclipses affect women more than men. Hence the expression 'she went looney'. Get your rest and buy some cookies this year or look for Sara (of 'sara lee' fame) in the frozen isle. You don't need to do everything! Sit back and watch the bake-offs while he watches the ball game. Enjoy and remember nothing is ever perfect. We are a work in progress. With love and hope in our hearts who could go wrong.

New moon in sagittarius - Sunday Dec. 5th @ 12:36 pm (click here)

Image
New beginnings are welcome. Mercury is retro again from dec. 10th thru the 30th. Many happy returns (of presents!). Gift cards might be the best gift this year unless you already purchased your gift. Good time for budgeting and deep thoughts. What are we celebrating? We each can fill in our own answer to that one. Let's try to keep our heart seeking the truth in this holiday season. Love and gratitude are gifts of the spirit that I wish you all. Whatever your holiday I wish you peace.

Mullica Hill's Civil War Re-enactment

Image
The town of Mullica Hill is known today for its antique shops. It was first established in the late 17th century by both Irish and English Quakers who established plantations around the area known as Mullica Hill. It was called Spicerville and was on the south bank of Raccoon Creek. The North bank of the creek was known as Mullica Hill after the Finnish settlers the Mullica's who first purchased land there in 1704. It was a town of 2 taverns and a grist mill til the 1780's.

Murphy's Bookstore- Mullica Hill

Image
I went to Murphy's Bookstore hoping to sell some of my old books. My questions were answered and I found out that they were textbooks and were not worth anything. There were books on every subject in the store and some free books outside. It was worth the trip and it happened to be the 41st annual fall festival in mullica hill.

no moon at all...at least not visible at this time. the new moon is in gemini. new beginnings are signified. if you are not feeling content, fulfilled, and positive about your life. 'think'(gemini's keyword). yes, think about what you need to bring into your life... love, health, money, security. whatever it is, set your course to obtain it.

fruit on the fruit cocktail tree

well, the story of the fruit cocktail tree continues. i removed the cheesecloth covering it. i think it needed more sun/air. there are a few small peach-like fruits on the branches. some animal or birds?? ate some of them. there are no plums or nectarines. they all look like peaches so far. what do you think?
