Happy Pink Full Moon...

"Full Moon names date back to Native Americans, of what is now the northern and eastern United States."
.
"– Full Pink Moon – April This name came from the herb
moss pink, or wild ground phlox, which is one of the earliest widespread
flowers of the spring. Other names for this month’s celestial body
include the Full Sprouting Grass Moon, the Egg Moon, and among coastal
tribes the Full Fish Moon, because this was the time that the shad swam
upstream to spawn."

FULL PINK MOON! How interesting. Those Native Americans are wise, can sure tell a story, and go way back in history. Thanks for this message, Tessa. Is it supposed to happen tonight?
