The Full Moon (Scorpio) is at ten to seven that morning. So the feeling during the day will perhaps be one of post-climax. Things might pick up after nine in the evening, when the moon 'enters Sagittarius'. The star Scorpio 2 occults the moon and is visible through a telescope between about eleven and half past. Any opportunity to gaze at a ripe moon through a holed stone (Kenidjack stone row nearby) should, possibly, be vigorously grasped - depends on the clouds, of course. Perhaps Thom's term Astronomer-priest could be moulded toward Astrologer-priest?

Stones in moonlight? 'Rah! It's got to be good.

Go for it, night-time stoney ancientness does add a whole extra brain twizzling dimension to the old rocks thing.

Sounds great. Dunno about it being better if JC did it - I always get the impression from his fieldnotes that he's not much of a walker! =;o)
BTW, I had a really freaky experience at Kenidjack once - it can be a strange place.

the perfect chance for a moonbath, sounds ace.

what is the womens land trust? why womens, i am puzzled is it possibly because men are violaters of mother earth where as women are nurturers(hehehehh)

Didn't go in the end...went to the pub and got pissed.
