Subject: RE: BS: Lunar Eclipse - 08 Nov '03 From: Bill D Date: 08 Nov 03 - 07:14 PM I just invented a telescope mount for an old Navy spotting scope I have...it is set up in the yard, and works...so I will get a good view! Night is fairly clear, and moon is right over houses across the street..I will have clear line of sight...wow... |
Subject: RE: BS: Lunar Eclipse - 08 Nov '03 From: katlaughing Date: 08 Nov 03 - 07:13 PM open mike, thanks for posting the OM info. It's almost time here. Has anyone else already seen it? I noticed there is a solar eclipse coming up later this month, too. |
Subject: RE: BS: Lunar Eclipse - 08 Nov '03 From: SINSULL Date: 08 Nov 03 - 12:04 PM I saw a total solar eclipse in Australia in the 70s. Absolutely awe-inspiring. Even knowing exactly when it would occur did not take away the creepy, out of control feelings it inspired. Imagine not having a clue what was going on. We had a total lunar eclipse a few months ago. I watched it with the Patons and their family and Kendall. Will watch again tonight. M. |
Subject: RE: BS: Lunar Eclipse - 08 Nov '03 From: Nigel Parsons Date: 08 Nov 03 - 10:57 AM Fionn: yep, it should be visible in UK (clouds & street lights permitting). Here's a clip from the Daily Telegraph: "Total eclipse of Moon tonight By Roger Highfield, Science Editor (Filed: 08/11/2003) A total eclipse of the moon will be visible tonight, reaching a ruddy climax in the early hours tomorrow, if the weather is clear. Earth's shadow will begin to creep over the Moon at about 11.30pm. The total phase of the eclipse will be unusually brief, lasting only 25 minutes (between 1.06am and 1.31am). It will all be over by 3.05am." For a fuller picture, Google to "Daily Telegraph" and use their search facility for "Eclipse" Nigel |
Subject: RE: BS: Lunar Eclipse - 08 Nov '03 From: GUEST Date: 08 Nov 03 - 08:37 AM Chiron is an asteroid/slow moving object/comet, as I recall. Between Jupiter and Saturn maybe? Or Saturn and Uranus? Here is a NASA page on it: http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/chiron.html |

Subject: RE: BS: Lunar Eclipse - 08 Nov '03 From: Bobert Date: 07 Nov 03 - 10:45 PM Well, I fir one, am totally psyched.... I love eclipses... Yeah, I rember one back in '69 and a bucnh of us piled into my old Volkwagen in Richmond and went to Virginia Beach where it was 'sposed to be like %100, 'er real close to it.... This was a solar eclipse but it don't matter.... Well we got down there in spite of my poor VeeDub's 4th gear poppin' out every 10 minutes and were on the beach with plenty o' time to spare and so, like all good hippies, figgured that a little Mr. Natural would certainly enhance the experience.... We was set up just a hundred feet from some family who we're experiencin' no Mr. Natural but had two younginz who knew everything about everything, includin' the eclipse... Well, these two kids come on down to where we were on the beach an' started tellin' us stuff that we didn't have a clue about an' set us up with boxes with pin holes an' all that.... And then they started talkin' 'bout "trails". Hmmmmmm. Like we was trippin' and these two kids talkin' 'bout "trails"? Okay, I later lernt that them trails were like lookin' at yer feet during the eclipse and it looiks like it would look if you were standin' in a few inches of water... 'cept there was no water! Hmmmm? Now this is real bad when a couple of 11 year olds is tryin' to explanerate this to ya' an' all you can say is "Far out, kid..." Then the eclipse begins and all these things that the kids said were gonna happen started happenin' and it was so cool. Well, when that trails thing started, it kinda freeked mw, but, hey, I had a couple of 11 year olds hangin' tough and makin' sure that I didn't get too wierded out... Thank God fir eclipses and 11 year olds.... Bobert |
Subject: RE: BS: Lunar Eclipse - 08 Nov '03 From: Bill D Date: 07 Nov 03 - 10:19 PM if I go Ohhhh, when everyone else is going ooommmmm, will that spoil the cosomological convergence?-or close the major interdimensional gateway? If it (ushering in a new activation of energy upon the Earth). .don't happen, I will take full blame. |
Subject: RE: BS: Lunar Eclipse - 08 Nov '03 From: open mike Date: 07 Nov 03 - 09:08 PM HAPPY HARMONIC CONCORDANCE! http://sfgate.com/columnists/morford/ FULL STORY at http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2003/04nov_lunareclipse2.htm?list105852 Info on this weekend's amazing event... On November 8, 2003 at 8:13 pm (NY Time; 5:13 pm west coast time) we will have the opportunity to sound together and anchor in new interdimensional energies at a powerful and climactic moment in the Earth's history. It is our great pleasure to co create with you PROJECT OM, a Webcast on World Puja personal and planetary healing and transformation. At 8:13 PM (New York Time) on November 8, 2003, a geometrically perfect six sided (Star of David) configuration will appear in the sky, linking and balancing the energies of six astrological bodies; the Sun, Jupiter, Mars, Saturn, Chiron and the Moon. In addition, there will be an eclipse of the full moon at this time. The interaction of this significant planetary alignment at the moment of the eclipse combines to produce a powerful alchemical transformation offering the opportunity for both personal and planetary shifts in consciousness. The name that has been given to this particular energetic window of time is the Harmonic Concordance. It goes from November 5th through the 11th with the peak at 8:13 PM on November 8th! This Grand Sextile astrological configuration, accompanying a total lunar eclipse, has never before occurred in recorded history. This is an immensely powerful vibrational activation that many throughout the planet see as a major interdimensional gateway fulfilling ancient prophecies from different traditions and ushering in a new activation of energy upon the Earth. . Sound is an extraordinarily powerful vehicle for creating frequency shifts and raising planetary consciousness. By simultaneously toning together a Planetary Healing Sound coherent wave form that will assist the already manifesting transformational energy of the cosmos. For this reason, we are working in conjunction with World Puja to use the Internet to connect people throughout the planet through Sound, Light and Love. The Schedule for Project Om is as follows: 8:00 The Harmonic Concordance Webcast begins on World Puja. Information about Project Om is shared. 8:05 We begin preliminary breathing and sounding exercises to clear and attune ourselves. 8:11 We begin to sound a rolling "Om", projecting this sound to assist in planetary activation for this new energy. We will be sounding as the Lunar Eclipse begins at 8:13 8:22 We finish making sound and now meditate in this energy 8:30 We conclude our Webcast. Because of the enormity of this cosmological event, the Harmonic Concordance there are literally thousands of websites with differing information about this important time. There are also events occurring throughout the world to help usher in this new energy. There are many perspectives and belief systems available with varying agendas attached to them. Because of this, we do not feel it necessary to provide more information, except to say that projecting Light & Love through Sound together at 8:13 PM NY Time on November 8, 2003 will be particularly beneficial for personal and planetary consciousness activation. Please join us! And if possible, please send this email to others. There are prophecies that say that if 144,000 sound together, a new era of consciousness may be issued in. Perhaps this is the time! |

No light pollution! Hope everyone that gets to see it has a great view! JD |
Subject: RE: BS: Lunar Eclipse - 08 Nov '03 From: katlaughing Date: 07 Nov 03 - 06:55 PM It's the end of the world as we know it...today and every day.**bg** Thanks for the links and heads-up, folks. It's been cloudy all week, but supposed to be clear this weekend. |

Subject: RE: BS: Lunar Eclipse - 08 Nov '03 From: Mary in Kentucky Date: 07 Nov 03 - 06:16 PM Here's a nice link. It should be visible in the Americas, Europe, Africa and cAsia. It starts at 6 pm Mudcat time and is full between 8 and 8:30 pm Mudcat time. (That would be 11 and 1 - 1:30 on Sunday morning GMT) |
Subject: RE: BS: Lunar Eclipse - 08 Nov '03 From: Peter K (Fionn) Date: 07 Nov 03 - 06:13 PM Any astronomers know if we'll see it in the UK? |
Subject: RE: BS: Lunar Eclipse - 08 Nov '03 From: Amos Date: 07 Nov 03 - 04:32 PM Well, Mars. the harbinger of war and bloodshed, is certainly having his little way with us, isn't he? Maybe it's really portentous and we should be quaking and stuff... A |
Subject: RE: BS: Lunar Eclips - 08 NOv '03 From: Ebbie Date: 07 Nov 03 - 04:29 PM Here in southeast Alaska, assuming it's clear enough, (it snowed last night) we'll see it right after sunset tomorrow, about 4:00. Since I experienced a total solar eclipse in the early '80s, no other eclipse has caused anything close to the awe I felt then. But it will be interesting to see the moon darken. It's supposed to be tinged red here. (As anyone else noted the superstition-loaded symbols of the last year or so? Mars, the vividness of the aurora borealis, red moon... Others, I'm sure. Don't get me wrong- I see no connection with those kinds of things and potential world events- on the other hand, the older I get the more clearly I realize that I don' know nuffin.) |
Subject: BS: Lunar Eclips - 08 NOv '03 From: GUEST,MMario Date: 07 Nov 03 - 04:17 PM just got an e-mail about this from a friend - hard to believe I hadn't heard it was happening Hoping for clear weather - as it will begin and may even reach totality as I drive home from a rehearsal Saturday night... |
