My above attempt failed as usual. Note that the coming full moon coincides this year with Imbolc/Brigid’s/Candlemas/Groundhog Day . I plan to try again beginning at the exact time of full moon, which will be 6:39 p.m. NST (2209 UTC) February 1, 2026. If that fails I will probably wait until the next new/dark moon, which is Chinese New Year and a significant birthday in my family, to try again. However that is also the day of or the day before (depending on the sighting of the waxing crescent) the start of Ramadan, and I don’t really expect a correlation with an existing religious holiday. I won’t announce the full moon attempt on all these groups, just on alt.religion.druid , except by this post. -- https://www.nfld.com/~dalton/dtales.html Salmon on the Thorns (mystic page) “And now the angry morning; Gives the early signs of warning; You must face alone the plans you make; Decisions they will try to break” (S.McL.)
