Daily Celestial Challenge: Monday; Darkness
The tides of darkness keep calling for me
With each splash; my name I hear
I walk into the moonlit horizon
With each step, so refreshing
I walk further away from the shore
My name in the distance behind me
My feet no longer touch the ground
The darkness of the ocean has encapsulated me
Promising to bring me back to shore when the tide comes.
I soak up the darkness in all of it's beauty.
Listening to the distant sound of my name...
I happened across this cool challenge by @Sirknight
We have 7 days each named after various celestial bodies, derived from various Greek and Roman Gods.
Sunday (Sun)
Latin - dies solis "day of the sun"
To celebrate our life creating 'Sun,' on Sunday's we should celebrate our very own star and the light and the energy it provides.
Monday (Moon)
Latin dies lunae "day of the moon"
On this day we should celebrate the Moon, the night and the tides.
Tuesday (Mars)
Latin dies Martis "day of Mars"
The Red Planet, named after Ares the God of War. On this day we examine Mars and it's symbolism for the rivalry in nature and life - survival of the fittest!
Wednesday (Mercury)
Latin dies Mercurii "day of Mercury"
Mercury is the Roman god of commerce, travel, thievery, eloquence and science. He is the messenger of the other gods.
On this day we celebrate the great achievements of man, including buildings, engineering, transportation and architecture.
Thursday (Jupiter)
Jupiter (Jove) is the supreme Roman god and patron of the Roman state. He is noted for creating the thunder and the lightning - and he wasn't afraid to use it.
Every Thursday we should pay tribute to the forces of nature!
Friday (Venus)
Ancient Greek hemera Aphrodites "day of Aphrodite"; and,
Freo is identical with freo, meaning free. It is from the Germanic frijaz meaning "beloved, belonging to the loved ones, not in bondage, free".
Each Friday we reward ourselves by embracing 'love, beauty and freedom!'
Saturday (Saturn)
Latin dies Saturni "day of Saturn"
Just as Saturn was the Roman god of agriculture, we should use our Saturday's for not just tending to our crops and gardens but posting about them too. Each Saturday we examine foods, farming, fishing, self-sustainable living and all things similar.
