Dining out with the Hunger Moon
from Sleeping with the Moon Hosted by Michael Loader
… "Climbing higher I search for the moon, yearning for its quenching glow, and with cyclopic torch upon my head lighting ground, bush and branch, pronounce that this man with ‘Lanthorn, dog and bush of thorn presenteth Moonshine, for I am the Man I’ th’ Moon’ searching this Athenian wood eager for the reacquaintance of love that slumbers beyond the horizoned edge” ... 'The Hunger Moon, a name derived from Native Americans appears at the end of winter when game was scarce and edible plants were few for animals and humans. The moon was also known as Little Famine Moon when the threat of famine after long winters was real. People in pre-industrial times were acutely aware of the abundance and scarcity of food. Most of us, on the other hand, have lost our connection to those cycles' - Dorian Winslow In the second of Michael’s moon sleepovers we walk into Goblin Combe to satisfy our thirst for connection with Nature.
