Above are picturestaken this morning Venus and the moon are (were) very close together.
im pretty sure I could detect the moons relatively rapid movement as it slowly sinks lower in the sky below Venus. Look at the upper left photo and the lower right photo. The positions of a Venus and the Moon are slightly different..
I bought this mat for my ex, who said she wanted a yoga mat. She said she didn’t like it, too heavy, and never used it. This was years before I started yoga, and when I did, this was the first mat I used. But, I didn’t really like this mat either, because of its history, being for my ex. So I bought my own mat. Then another, then another. Since then, I’ve used (and worn out) several mat. Then I came back to this one, as my experience recognized it as a really really good mat.
I noticed there were no other mats like it or similar, and not even the yoga store owners could identify it. It’s clearly a Manduca, but seems unique.
So finally, the other day, I emailed and asked about this mat..below is the reply I received
This thrills me to no end. I know it’s a dumb thing to be overly happy about, but it really does.
I have another unique seeming mat, it’s a Manduka Pro too, I’m sure, but it is a little longer and a little wider than standard sized mats and I love it because it was a very special gift from a very special teacher. I kinda set it aside and saving it from wear and tear, although it doesn’t seem to wear and tear at all.
It was starry and clear overhead, with a nice Crescent Moon but there was a lightning storm out at sea. The lightning was constant. It was quiet with no thunder.
I made the above GIF from a video that I took this morning..
Yesterday and today have been good mornings. I’ve walked the dog, run a little swam a little and did a little yoga.. Pre dawn has been beautiful with flat flat flat calm sea, and light from an almost full moon.
I’ve lived in the Cayman Islands almost 30 years, and I’m still grateful to be here every day.
