Blue Moon

On Friday, the moon will be full for the second time in August. This uncommon event has been known as a "blue" moon since the time of Shakespeare, and won't occur again until June 2015. The blue moon has been associated with sadness and predictions of disaster, but I prefer a more optimistic interpretation, inspired by the refrain of Blue Moon, by Rodgers and Hart:  

"And then there suddenly appeared before me 

The only one my arms will ever hold 

I heard somebody whisper please adore me 

And when I looked the moon had turned to gold"     

Once in a Blue Moon is related to Moonray, one of my favorite pieces, and makes a complete circle using two Moonrays. I think of two lovers in a perfect embrace.
