It's a new month as we welcome February and the cool things it brings to the night sky...the Pleiades (the Seven Sisters), planets, the Snow Moon, and more. There's so much beauty to see when we remember to look up, even with the naked eye -- you don't have to have a telescope to appreciate the awesomeness of Nature's nights above us. Just click on the picture below for more details.
Happy New Year from the Universal Pantheist Society and welcome to 2021! We hope this is a good year for you and for our world, our planet.
Wishing everyone a Happy Solstice (summer for those in the southern hemisphere)! As we celebrate light and hope this new season (something we can all use especially this year!), we also have Saturn and Jupiter shining together as a 'Christmas Star.' Read all about the "great conjunction" here. It's a great time to be a pantheist and a sky watcher! Stay warm and safe as you celebrate this week.
It's that time again....a new month for you sky watchers and stargazers! December is the time for the Geminids, an eclipse and, of course, Winter Solstice, and a whole lot more to see when you remember to look up at that beautiful winter sky! (image courtesy of space.com) It's a beautiful time to be outside, and a great time to look up! Lots of cool things happening in the October night sky...from the Harvest Moon to the Halloween Blue Hunter's Moon and lots in between, including a meteor shower! Just click on the picture below from the Farmer's Almanac website.

This month brings us a full Corn Moon (the Harvest Moon will come next month), planet pairings, and, of course, the Autumnal Equinox on September 22nd, marking the beginning of Fall in the Northern Hemisphere and Spring in the Southern Hemisphere. Enjoy the first days of a new season, and, as always, don't forget to look up! (Picture is from the Farmer's Almanac website)
A little late, but here's what's happening in the night skies this month:

We may largely be confined to our homes and yards right now because of COVID-19, but most of us can still step outside for a minute or two (or more) and look up.
