Rare HONEY MOON to appear on Friday 13th for first time in 100 years

Friday, June 13, 2014 13:02

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

A rare full ‘Honey Moon’ has not fallen on Friday 13th in June since 1919 and it will not appear again until 2098.

The event will send shivers down the spine of horror story aficionados particularly after the advent of the recent Blood Moon which was said to herald the ‘End of Days’ in Christian writings.

According to ancient literature, the movements of the moon, stars and sun can be read as signs of what is to come for the people on earth.

The Bible even forewarns: “And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring.” [Luke 21:25]

“For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine. [Isaiah 13:10]

The Honey Moon however is somewhat less foreboding and is said to herald a fruitful summer, according to some ancient civilisations.

Stargazers will be able to view the beautiful sighting from around 1am tomorrow morning.

Gazers in the Canary Islands and Chile will have the best view but it will also be seen in parts of Europe and North America.

Those who are unable to view the moon will be able to watch a live stream for two hours from the Institute of Astrophysics of the Canary Islands and the Pontificia Universidad Catolica De Chile.

The moon will have a golden, almost champagne, hue due to its low positioning on the horizon which is the result of light having to travel further to reach Earth.

It will be at its lowest point in the sky for a year, appearing just 12 degrees about the horizon.

The rare celestial event has great significance in some ancient cultures and some sources have even worshipped the Honey Moon as the advent of the arrival of an abundant summer.

The Algonquin Indian tribes of North America even called the Honey Moon the ‘Strawberry Moon’ which marked the exact time of year to gather the fruit.

The Honey Moon’s name derives from the fact that bees are in full flourish in June and their hives are steeped with honey.

Traditionally the honey would have been made into mead which was then drunk after weddings during the Summer Solstice – hence where the name honeymoon comes from.

Expert astronomer Bob Berman told Universe Today: “Is this Full Moon of June the true origin of the word honeymoon, since it is amber, and since weddings were traditionally held this month

“That phrase dates back nearly half a millennium to 1552, but one thing has changed: weddings have shifted, and are now most often held in August or September.

“The idea back then was that a marriage is like the phases of the Moon, with the Full Moon being analogous to a wedding. Meaning, it’s the happiest and ‘brightest’ time in a relationship.”
