Er, it's not a chance alignment. It is 100% calculable, both forwards and backwards. And you can always find some sect that believes the world is about to end, because that is what Godbotherers do.

I like the way you manage to get the word 'cycle' in there

This evening's moon was huge and blood orange!

 

[Garethgas]

On a more serious note, I was up at 5.30 this morning for no particular reason and the moon was full and glowing but not anything unusual.
Which moon were you looking at?

Mine, alas, was bright but very white. Still is.
