MAJOR LUNAR STANDSTILL ApEX

Northernmost Moonrise today

​MAJOR LUNAR STANDSTILL
We are at the apex of our cycle here in March 2025. Lunistice pendulum pause point - maximum geocentric declination - as far from the celestial equator as it swings.
Moon Rises today at 11 am EST at the northernmost horizon point. Daytime moonrise viewing can be “tricky”- in my area we are blessed with a clear day- I will be going to a vista spot to see if I can view it from here.
Many of our sacred sites around the globe are aligned for the viewing and special demarcation of this northernmost horizon moon rise moment. Stonehenge in England, Newark Earthworks Octagon in Ohio, Chaco Canyon in New Mexico, Callanish in Scotland and many more. I have a modern local sun moon calendar here in Massachusetts too! Built by a professor at UMass Amherst.
Our upcoming Lunar Eclipse - Equinox - Solar Eclipse passageway in March is a product of this Major Lunar Standstill.
Eclipses occur at the Equinox during this major moment of the 18.6 year Lunar Cycle.
I will share more about all this significant special celestial mechanics - for now I am getting ready to go out and play and set up for this special moment.
Wanted to share with you- in case you could pop outside and watch this moonrise too. Look quite North of East on the horizon. Half Moon Rising mid day
From this day on, our lunar pendulum swings back. Just as the sun “sol” seems to “standstill” sistere at Solstice. So does the Moon at Lunistice.
And he we are. At Celestial stillpoint.
