FULL PINK MOON REACHES FULLNESS APRIL 6, 2012

Step outside tonight and welcome The Full Pink Moon of April 6, 2012 as she reaches fullness.

The Full Pink Moon got its name long ago  from Native Americans who were stuck by the many fields they saw in April covered with small, wild pink flowers. A list of full moon names can be found in the Farmer's Almanac.

It was lovely, Nancy. Somehow, though, it made me a little sad--a yearning feeling within my heart. I think that is something primitive that dwells within us.

Take care!
