How many times has some religious d/bag predicted the end of the world?  And how many times has it ended?  I would expect Ancient Aliens should do a show on this…..I mean who knows?  We could be facing the end times today.  An alignment of three celestial things…..wait did not we have an alignment of three things back in 2012?  And the world would end….here we go again!

Surely Nostradamus or the Book of Revelation has something cryptically written….but since few are worried let me continue……

Three astronomical events are happening tomorrow, and depending on whom you talk to and how superstitious they are, it’s either going to be a day filled with good luck or a pretty terrible one. A rare solar eclipse/supermoon/vernal equinox combo will be taking place, with prime eclipse viewing spots in Europe, much of northern Africa, western Asia, and parts of the Mideast and Newfoundland, reports the Guardian—which notes that “some Christian ministers have viewed the rare collision of three celestial events as the beginning of the end of the world.” Some of the other legends and superstitions regarding the event:

• Mythology from a variety of cultures promoted the idea that an eclipse meant dinnertime for malevolently ravenous creatures. In China, a dragon was believed to eat the sun, while Hindu legend has the sun eaten by the floating head of the demon Rahu, the Christian Science Monitor notes. Other sun-eating predators: Korea’s “fire dogs,” Vietnam’s space frogs, and the Vikings’ sky wolves, per National Geographic.

• It’s also apparently time to beware of everyday dangers: A long-standing superstition is that pregnant women are especially at risk during an eclipse and that harm may come to their unborn children, the BBC has noted. In India, meanwhile, some folks fast because they believe food prepared during an eclipse is poisoned, per the Guardian.

• There’s some good news amid all this terror: The spring equinox—which brings longer and longer days in the Northern Hemisphere—is typically looked at as a “time of beginning and renewal,” the Independent notes. And in Italy, the most vibrant flowers are said to be those planted during an eclipse, per the Guardian.

Do not panic!  Today will be just another day…..and more silliness about the end of days……go out enjoy life and make a friend…..

Peace Out!
