First Lunar Watchnight

Last night's start to the Solstice Week was rather moving. We clustered onto the Astral Platform, which has been built to enable us to watch lunar and solar events from the Orchard without trees, houses and small hills getting in the way. We watched the moon rise, blinking dimly while behind us the setting sun was still strong. A few people unfortunately were crowded out and fell from the Astral Platform, and their shrieks of pain did tend to distract from a spiritual moment. But overall, a very deep and significant event.
