The Moon

Yes, I agree this has been a rather arbit topic to blog about. But the inspiration for this blog is the result of the long, lonely walks that yours truly has been taking at nights these days. During these walks , the object of my undivided attention has been nothing but that beautiful, surreal circle of light which seems to mirror all our desires and at the same time our worst fears. Has anything else ever been so dark and mysterious, at the same time soo beautiful and enchanting!? The light that emanates from it is so unlike that from any other source; it seems to pierce right through one's eyes, on a journey that takes it right inside the very depth of one's soul. Beauty is a subjective term, but I guess this will be as close as it can ever get to a true definition or symbol.

So why has something so beautiful, always been associated with evil spirits and dark power? In almost all popular ancient schools of thought, full moon is the time at which the evil creatures of the night are the strongest. Even the werewolf of popular lore, transforms from its human form to that blood thristy monster on full moon nights (or is it on exposure to normal moon light?). Thus examples are endless for such negative symbolisms that are adjuncted to the moon. So lets give some introspections as to why such false connotations have arisen, in the meantime I will be back with my next post.

My quote for the day is:

" A thing of beauty, is a joy forever"
