🌕❄️ The Cold Moon Is Returning — And We Won’t See Another Like It for 18.6 Years ✨

This week, the Moon is preparing a spectacle we haven’t witnessed since 2006 — and won’t witness again until 2043.
The final supermoon of 2025 coincides with a major lunar standstill, the same rare cycle ancient astronomers and Stonehenge’s builders tracked with such precision.

A lunar standstill happens once every 18.6 years, when the Moon reaches the most extreme northern and southern points in its orbit.
This time, it aligns perfectly with a supermoon — amplifying the effect in a way that’s truly extraordinary.

Because the Moon will be 17,000 miles closer to Earth, it will appear up to 14% larger and around 30% brighter than an average full moon.

🌍 What You’ll Notice:

⬆️ Northern Hemisphere:
The Moon will rise to an unusually high altitude — far above its typical winter path.

⬇️ Southern Hemisphere:
It will hang remarkably low, glowing near the horizon like a massive golden lantern.

Astronomers are calling this the most extreme full moon event until 2042 — a moment where celestial geometry and ancient sky traditions align in perfect harmony.

📅 When: December 4, 2025
⏰ Peak Illumination: 6:14 PM EST

No telescope needed. No special equipment.
Just step outside and look up — the sky is about to show us how rare and wondrous our Moon can truly be. 🌕✨

Such a kind review from a family member. ❤️

After looking into other places for my mother to live in the Austin area, my brothers and I feel very lucky to have found Shenandoah Villa Assisted Living for her. The staff give her expert care and personal attention - paying close attention to her medications and needs. All the staff are very friendly, observant, caring and skilled. It is a relatively small facility and I see that every resident receives the best, most personal care - they know their residents! The home cooked meals are freshly made with healthy and tasty ingredients and my mother loves them. The facility is clean, bright and always fresh smelling. Zalina, the owner, is extremely knowledgeable and experienced in the business of assisted living and in working with people - she and all the staff are warm hearted and caring. My mother has lived at Shenandoah Villa for 2 years now and we continue to be happy and thankful that our mom lives there.

“You're going to realize it one day - that happiness was never about your job, or your degree, or being in a relationship. Happiness was never about following in the footsteps of all of those who came before you, it was never about being like the others.
One day, you're going to see it - that happiness was always about the discovery, the hope, the listening to your heart and following it wherever it chose to go. Happiness was always about being kinder to yourself, it was always about embracing the person you were becoming. One day, you will understand. That happiness was always about learning how to live with yourself, that happiness was never in the hands of other people.
It was always about you. It was always about you.”
