October has not one, but two full moons — and because it’s 2020, the second one naturally falls on Halloween. That gives this year 13 full moons instead of the usual 12. While the moon won’t actually look blue, the second full moon in one month is usually referred to as a blue moon. This happens every 2.5 to three years, or “once in a blue moon.” While a blue moon seems rare, a full moon on Halloween across time zones is even more rare — an event that hasn’t occurred since 1944. However, a full moon occurs on Halloween every 19 years in some time zones, so you can expect a full Halloween moon again in 2039, 2058, 2077 and 2096. – Read from CNN
Once in a blue moon – Some meant is as “rare.” Some meant it as “absurd.” Some meant it to be “magical.” I think there are phases in our lives when these meanings become “true.”
We celebrate when we find something rare. Sometimes we only realize we had something rare after we lose it. And it might seem absurd thinking it cannot happen. Sometimes, we choose to cherish it more because we know we had something rare and maybe magical.
Whatever our “once in a blue moon” is, I hope we appreciate the process and the learnings we get from those. May it be teachable moments that we learn from. May it be wonderful memories to look back on. It is still a beautiful world. Desiderata.
