Super Moon

"What do you want? You want the moon? Just say the word and I'll throw a lasso around it and pull it down. Hey. That's a pretty good idea. I'll give you the moon"
"It's a Wonderful Life"

So I am not sure if everyone looked outside last night. 
Or was even able to see the moon from where they were.
A few friends of mine stated that it was too cloudy or too
bright to be able to see the sky clearly. But from where I was
the sky was clear, my surroundings were dark and the moon lit
up the sky like nothing I have ever seen. Last night was a Super Moon
...
Accoording to Wikipedia a Super Moon is  
"...a new or full moon which occurs with the Moon at or near (within 90% of) its closest approach to Earth in a given orbit. In short, Earth, Moon and Sun are all in a line, with Moon in its nearest approach to Earth"


 How clear is that. 
Absolutely amazing. 
It also has been researched that within days of super moons the chances of natural disasters like tsunamis and earth quakes.

Here is one from the eclipse that happened a little while back.
 Beautiful. 
With that being said.
I hope everyone had an amazing weekend & enjoys the start of their Spring.
Good Night Moon.
xoxo.
