We as humans have avery busy weekend it seems. Every major faith is having a bash on thursday/ friday. This, combined with a full moon, is going to have a serious effect on the planet, from an energy point of view.
I am not planning on leaving my house, will stay home, clean, nurture and enjoy family time. But really, this is a really rare event, one that happens very seldom, and actually has the possibility of much joy. Imagine the entire planet being religiously ecstatic on the same day ... interesting thought.
For chistians it's not a happy time, remembering the death of Christ. 12-3 is considered a holy time, and is best met with quiet reverence.
For pagans, a very powerful time, a changing of the seasons. The full moon helps too.
I notice that 20th is the birthday of mohammed, but no-one knows his exact birthdate, kinda like chistmas huh.
This i think, will be a week to look out for. It's pissing with rain all over SA, so calmer and more peaceful than usual. Look out for great things.
