New Moons are great for starting things.  If you have been feeling slightly tired the past 2 weeks, chalk it  up to the Waning (deflating) Moon, going from the Full moon in Libra to the New Moon in Aries.  I am not going to go into a long explanation of Aries, since I did that in the last Entry.  In Short, Aries Statement is "I AM!" 

Here is a new graphic of it -- this is a little more sedate little ram...





A New Moon takes place this weekend - and it takes place whenever the Sun and Moon are together in the same sign.
 
Right now both Sun and Moon are in Aries, and since Aries is a Fire Sign, this New Moon might be a doozy!

I am hearing Jerry Lee Lewis singing "Goodness, Gracious, Great Balls of Fire!"

Speaking of Great Balls of Fire, during the week before Easter, I read an article about a Star that exploded half way across the Universe.  It did not say half way across our Milky Way Galaxy, but millions of light years beyond that!

Just think of how long ago the actual explosion took place, for the light of that event to be reaching us NOW --It is staggering!  This Star's energy burst forth and took place when our universe was half it's current age...

The sight of it only lasted a short while, so it did not get alot of News Coverage.   I thought I should give it at least what it is due - a little more than 15 minutes of fame!



TA DA!  (Photo Not actual size, obviously!)  This photo was taken with a Telescope. 

Here are quotes from the Associated Press:

"The explosion of a star halfway across the universe was so huge it set a record for the most distant object that could be seen on Earth by the naked eye.

The aging star, in a previously unknown galaxy, exploded in a gamma ray burst 7.5 billion light years away, it's light finally reaching Earth on Wednesday, March 19, 2008.

One Light Year is 5.9 Trillion Miles."

Whenever I read things like this, I feel very small sometimes in the face of how huge our universe is and how vast and unchartered it is.   That is why I like to look at the Stars so much - I feel very close to God.

Many Blessings on your new beginnings!

More will be revealed!

Love,
