Today is the beginning of summer called "Summer Solstice" in the calendar all over the world. It's an old tradition to celebrate harvest and health from the astrology. We can see the astronomical observation in the north hemisphere, a strawberry moon.
Summer Solstice
Good morning Jen!
返信削除A lot of purple flowers of lavender on the promenade are in bloom.
My lavender is a different kind. So purple flowers do not bloom.
As you say, maybe we can't see the beautiful moon today.
That's really unfortunate.
By the way,
Today,I will go to the "Tateyama international hotel " with people of the senior's club.
And we will visit the "Tateyama museum" on the way.
A good excursion for you!
削除Enjoy your summer but rainy day（≧∇≦）
It's the summer solstice today, isn't it?
返信削除In recent years, I has become unconcerned about the turning point of such a season.
In addition, today is "full moon", isn't it?
I knew for the first time in this blog that full moon of tonight is called the "Strawberry Moon".
Probably, because it will be cloudy or rainy tonight, we can not watch a full moon, but I want to see "the strawberry moon".
It's from the ancient western mythology and astrology mostly with no rainy season there. That's why they have June bride and June honey moon.
削除"The strawberry moon" is a nice name.
返信削除People in the old days are a romantic.
When I was young, I have had my dream.
I haven't my dream but I'm happy with my wife.
We are blessed with my daughters and granddaughters.
It seems like you're still in honey moon, aren't you?
削除Oh, thank you but it's right for my wife.
返信削除I think both of you have a romantic full moon＼(^o^)／
