Beautiful Candace. What a great image for both the seasons when there is a shadow in our lives and the season after when the shadow moves and the light is unhindered again.
Thank you so much for your lovely comment, Mira -- I truly feel so lucky that I just so happened to be on the right side of the world, and looking out my window at just the right time, to see the eclipse as it unfolded. It felt very meant to be 🤍✨
Absolutely beautiful retelling of a powerful experience. I’ve heard the eclipse likened to the turning off and on of a switch. A reboot. And you witnessed it first hand so unexpectedly. What a gift. 🌕
It really did feel like such a gift to witness, Alyson, and your beautiful words are another gift! Thank you so much for sharing that about the symbolism of an eclipse -- there are indeed some things in my life right now that could use a little reboot, so I'll be thinking about that over the days to come 🤍✨
How lucky for you all to be in the right place. We discovered that we wouldn't be able to see the eclipse because it would happen during the early sunlit evening. Well, harrumph! The medea made such a big deal about it, too. So, thank you for this beautiful sequel to your full moon story. I feel now like I saw it too.
"I feel now like I saw it too." I love that, Sue! I think that's always been at the heart of my mission as a writer and artist, so it makes me really happy to hear that you could picture the eclipse. I'm sending a bit of its magic your way this week 🤍✨
Lischer, your comment made my day to read, thank you so much 🥹 I love that you used the word universality -- it's so important to me as a writer and artist, and especially just as a person, to be welcoming and inclusive, so it means a lot to hear that comes through for you here as well. And I'm so glad you love the colors, too! 🙏✨
Thank you, Cheryl! It really was quite a moment to witness the eclipse, and I knew right away that I had to try and share the beauty and magic of it with you here as well ✨
Love this!
Thank you, Retts! I'm so glad you enjoyed it ✨
Wow, that must have been beautiful to see. Lucky you.
It really was, and I knew right away that I had to try and share the beauty and wonder of it with you here as well. Thank you for reading! ✨

A beautiful observation about life and trust, and three celestial bodies in perfect alignment...
Thank you so much for your wonderful comment, Cate -- and I'm especially glad that picture of perfect alignment spoke to you 🤍✨
Positively lovely. What a magical moment it must have felt like for you.
