Lunar eclipses are a big astrological deal—here’s how to make the most of them

5 min read

June 14, 2019 at 05:00PM by CWC As cosmic events go, lunar eclipses are on the level of Mercury retrograde—in other words, they can shake up your life in a major way. Yet, beyond that basic understanding, they’re a bit of a mystery to many people. Like, how often do lunar eclipses occur? What, exactly, are they? And what kind of rituals can you do to commemorate them? Not unlike the stars, questions here abound. First, the technical stuff: A total lunar eclipse happens during a full moon, when the moon, Earth, and sun perfectly align in the sky with Earth in the middle. “The Earth shades the moon and prevents the sun’s light from reflecting on the moon,” says astrologer and massage therapist Tiffany Potempa. “The sun’s light is instead deflected from the Earth, giving the moon Earthy tones of red, brown, and gray indirectly.” Partial lunar eclipses involve a similar alignment, but the sun isn’t fully obscured by the Earth. ad_intervals[‘399685_div-gpt-ad-7435403-3’] = setInterval(function () { if (ads_ready) { clearTimeout(ad_intervals[‘399685_div-gpt-ad-7435403-3’]); googletag.cmd.push(function(){googletag.display(‘div-gpt-ad-7435403-3’);}); } }, 100); How often do lunar eclipses occur? On average, there are two lunar eclipses each year, although Potempa notes that this can vary. “Eclipses only occur during two eclipse seasons per year, which are about six months apart,” she explains. “For about two years, every time an eclipse occurs, they will occur in a pair of signs that are directly opposite each other in the zodiac. Then, the eclipses will start to overlap and move to

June 14, 2019 at 04:00PM by CWC Outdoor concerts, romantic picnics in the park, strawberry picking, day trips to the beach… Summer is peak season for romantic day dates. Which is exactly why when those summer thunderstorms roll in, it can be a major buzzkill. If your weather app is showing clouds and showers for the foreseeable future, you may be tempted to reschedule your date, but you absolutely shouldn’t. According to Dating.com vice president Maria Sullivan and Charly Lester, co-founder and chief marketing officer of Lumen, there are plenty of amazing dates you can enjoy despite the rain. Not only are they fun, but they can deepen your relationship—especially in those early still-getting-to-know-you days. Grab your umbrella, because these date ideas will help shake the June gloom. Check out these six rainy day date ideas from dating experts. 1. Sign up for an escape room. Sullivan and Lester both picked an escape room experience (like Escape The Room) as a relationship-building rainy day date pick. “Some are designed for just two players and it can be an amazing adventure and a real bonding experience,” Lester says. Sullivan points out that the activity requires lots of communication and helps you see if you make a good team. “You and your partner must work together to solve puzzles and riddles in order to escape a room,” she says. ad_intervals[‘399915_div-gpt-ad-7435403-3’] = setInterval(function () { if (ads_ready) { clearTimeout(ad_intervals[‘399915_div-gpt-ad-7435403-3’]); googletag.cmd.push(function(){googletag.display(‘div-gpt-ad-7435403-3’);}); } }, 100); 2.
