lindagarrette Posted January 16, 2006 Report Share Posted January 16, 2006 Although moon is a generic term, it is the original name for Earth's natural satellite and it's not necessary to distinguish from others since it is qualified by the ownership and there is only one.

Michaelangelica Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 Funny question, yes why? Grey leaved plants that glow in moonlight are called "Artemesia. . ." named in honour of the moon goddess.the moon goddess Artemis, who is believed to hold these powers. She is known also by Diana, Selene, and Phoebe. In Hellenistic culture, Artemis was a goddess of the hunt, and protector of the forest and children.-Wiki Mugwort, the scraggly, horrible looking one, not the tall fragrant one used in perfumery, will make you have vivid, colorful dreams if placed under your pillow.( I have tried it. It works!).So again another connection to the goddess, via dreams? "Wort" is OE for "useful plant""Mug" translates to midge or biting insects. So evenings could be insect free on your walk in the woods? Something to thank the goddess for.I assume this would be the fragrant variety now used in a very large % of men's colognes and aftershaves.(Another reason why men don't get bitten as much by insects as women?)

Post a scribbling about your seemingly endless fascination with mind-altering drugs in a thread that has absolutely nothing to do with it. This thread, matter of fact, is about whether the moon (nothing to do with drugs or tripping) should be renamed (nothing to do with drugs or tripping). Please do the me and the rest of Hypography a favour and quit it now. There's a good boy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
