I don't think Rob does Arcadia.

I love Casa Arcadia. Partied there long before it was only half of what it used to be and before the CONCRETE palapas crapped up the beach. But I learned living in Marblehead, Massachusetts as a young'un to avoid witches at all costs.

Ah, ya entiendo.

September 29th’s full moon is the Luna de Cosecha or Luna de Maiz . This Friday - September 29 - some of us are gathering at Arcadia on Playa Principal (fittingly just by Plaza de Artistes) for the 2nd monthly “Paint and Versify the Moon Party”.

At this time, the Moon appears particularly bright and rises early, letting farmers continue harvesting into the night. This moon is the nearest full moon to the autumnal equinox (0n every fall equinox, the sun of the late afternoon creates the illusion of a snake creeping slowly down the pyramid dedicated to Quetzalcoatl at Chichen Itza).

Çhicomecoatl, the Aztec goddess of fire and fertility, is revered in Mexico during the harvest season, as the guardian of corn (maiz) and all fertile things.

In Aztec mythology, Mētztli - literally "Moon" - was a god or goddess of the moon, the night and farmers. The Moon and Sun were once equally bright. Fearing the earth would burn under the light of two luminaries, one of the gods threw a rabbit at the Moon which darkened to become the current Moon. Henceforth it is possible to distinguish a figure of a rabbit on the Moon's surface. During a full moon, the "Rabbit in the Moon" becomes readily visible.

I provide acrylic paints, brushes, pens and paper. If you aren’t inspired to paint the Full Moon or write a poem about it, you can just bask in the full moon beams and socialize. You might even see a Rabbit in the Moon. Last month a turtle laid her eggs near us.

I will be there at 7:00 pm e-painting on my iPad with Brushes Redux and an Apple Pencil whilst swilling margaritas.

While it sounds like a party, the thousands of campesinos in our region who planted their milpas this year have little or nothing to cosechar or to celebrate due to the lack of rains.

The rain last night and this morning really cooled things down and made today MUCH more comfortable than yesterday. A world of difference!

Humpback whales have been sighted off our coast in recent days. A bit early in the season. Keep an eye out for them!

Many folks who planted maíz are worried about the lack of rain. Yesterday's was too little too late for many, and lots of families depend on these cosechas.

The fishermen have been bringing home abundant catches. Come check out the waterfront in the morning if you can and enjoy some local culture. These guys work hard and keep a lot of families fed.
