Have you ever had this feeling about the moon, when look deep into her, searching for more than the eyes can see, the yellow light shining from the immensity of the heavenly body. She is strikingly beautiful. There. making our species wonder why doesn't she fall into us or get away from us? We can almost feel inspired by her light. As it illuminates our skin in a devilish way, a blue light coming from a yellow body in a dark night. A mesmerizing witch, such so i could stare at her through the entire night and beg for her to stay. She is our first stalker as children, your first best friend, a pathway to another world of magic and mysteries. I cannot fear the dark as long as she is there. Like a primal instinct this feeling derives from within. It's beyond faith and beliefs, away from devils and religions or cults and magic. Almost like a hidden reality you can only feel when you look at her and realize how bestial you are. Like a morning beast you wake up from the sun's light, have much more energy to do everything, it feels like a satisfactory order, a sense of logical behaviour, of course you would do this and that, it's rational, i am human. but when it comes to the moon, when a single mistake happens that disturbs the entirety of your daily schedule and now you are too late to finish things on time. There is the moon, and there goes the energy. but that's not true. for some reason, the night makes you feel 'alive'? it makes you float with whatever comes your way but in a more intimate way. the night is still young they say, sometimes we associate it with creative work, hanging out with friends or having nostalgia with some taste of depression, but it isn't so simple, it can't be only that. The night, i believe, when lived in combination with nature can awake something within you i have yet to find out. almost as if you're building your own religion. her light feeds you everyday as the sound of waves on ocean at night can have crippling comforting fear. observing nature in aspects of our lives we tend to ignore is a powerful mystery to unravel. an easier way to feel alive or feel in another world. i believe this is still tied to how we are as an animal species but also how generations of humans have constantly tried to worship the moon, maybe they had this similar feeling at the time.
