Tonight, July 31, 2019, is a black moon. What’s a black moon, you ask? CNN says:
A black moon is basically the second new moon of the month, something that rarely occurs. It works similarly to a Leap Year. A lunar cycle typically takes about 29 days to complete, but our months are slightly longer. So sometimes, about every 32 months, we happen to get two full moons or two new moons. The second full moon in a month is called a blue moon, and the second new moon is called a black moon.
So if you have some work you need to do under a new moon this month, here’s your second chance. What are you going to see? Basically nothing. The new moon means the moon is dark. Also, Mercury Retrograde ends today, if you believe in that. Enjoy!
