I’ve been looking so long at these pictures of you That I almost believe that they’re real I’ve been living so long with my pictures of you That I almost believe that the pictures Are all I can feel Remembering you standing quiet in the rain As I ran to your heart to be near And we kissed as the sky fell in Holding you close How I always held close in your fear Remembering you running soft through the night You were bigger and brighter and wider than snow And screamed at the make-believe Screamed at the sky And you finally found all your courage To let it all go Remembering you fallen into my arms Crying for the death of your heart You were stone white So delicate Lost in the cold You were always so lost in the dark Remembering you how you used to be Slow drowned You were angels So much more than everything Hold for the last time then slip away quietly Open my eyes But I never see anything If only I’d thought of the right words I could have held on to your heart If only I’d thought of the right words I wouldn’t be breaking apart All my pictures of you Looking so long at these pictures of you But I never hold on to your heart Looking so long for the words to be true But always just breaking apart My pictures of you There was nothing in the world That I ever wanted more Than to feel you deep in my heart There was nothing in the world That I ever wanted more Than to never feel the breaking apart All my pictures of you ~ Pictures Of You, The Cure : @erik_fischer_photography #picturesofyou #thecure #lyrics #music #feels #moon #supermoon #photography #raw (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNBtkKjrXNk/?igshid=1a517ygk6l1i

TIPS
Lately, a few people seem to have latched onto the idea that it’s just plain dangerous to perform magic during a lunar eclipse, especially if you’re a “newbie.” There is absolutely no logical basis for this theory. If you’re worried enough about the state of your psyche that you believe it could be somehow damaged by doing magic during an eclipse, then you need to either (a) not do magic at all, or (b) learn how to ground, center and shield so you won’t self-sabotage any workings you do.
Some practitioners see the eclipse period–which is generally pretty short–as being the equivalent of an entire lunar cycle packed into one brief event.
In some modern magical traditions, a lunar eclipse is considered a sort of metaphysical bonus round–in other words, any spellwork you do during this period is amplified and has a bit of extra power behind it. If you’ve been waiting around for a good time to do some serious spell work, this is it. Pick a goal that serves your or others in a big way.
Looking for something a little different? Raise power during the supermoon by catching the light in a magnifying glass and charging the altar or spell elements with it.
The supermoon creates an especially strong pull on the ocean tides, making it an ideal time to work with the element of water.
Perhaps your schedule doesn’t permit you to use this event at the height of its power. In that case, leave out some crystals or make some moon water to store the supermoon’s energy for later use.
This cold, grey morning and a super high tide changed the tone of my walk today. I decided to roll with it and explore a little something new today. #fog #hightide #landscape #changeofplans #dock #charleston #postcardsfromcharleston #water #kingtide #supermoon (at Sunrise Park)
