The Dark Side of the Moon

Continuation of Macabre. I opened the rusty door, and I peaked inside the dark and dusty cabin. Even though the moon was at its fullest, its light couldn’t even freckle a glimpse of light into the pitch dark cabin. Eerie was the only word that came to mind, the only word in my mind, the only word that made sense. I put my left foot in, and instantly a cold shiver drifted down my spine. I furiously turned around only to discover that there was nothing there. Just bank empty space. The Cold…

Saturn has 63 discovered moons and 7 groups of rings, the exact number of rings is not known. Saturn’s largest moon is named Titan after the fact that Saturnus was a Titan, all of Saturn’s moons are named after Titan’s or something related to the fact. Saturn had the lowest density of all…

Moon: Theia Impact or “Big Splash” Theory: When in Earth was still in a molten state, an impactor (Theia) collided with the still forming Earth. Debris and magma that separated from the original body is believed to have congregated and formed into our moon, remaining in its “parent’s” orbit. (Most Plausible Explanation) Fission Theory: Chunk of magma separated from Earth in early formation stages. Pacific ocean basin is said to be where material was removed. Capture Theory: The moon was formed…

Dark Romantics thrive on the use of horror and how it can scare people out of their minds and motivate their deepest nightmares. Edgar Allen Poe’s favorite thing to do was exactly that. Poe is one of the greatest dark romantic writers because he was able to successfully portray horror in his writing, the people of his time read his literature and genuinely felt scared. In all of Poe’s works most notably in “Fall of the House of Usher”, “Annabel Lee”, and “The Philosophy of Composition”, he…

it’s a sacred phrase, part of the Drawing Down the Moon ritual, and should NEVER be used for any other reason. Others say the phrase is just what it expresses: a way of saying “I wish blessing to you”, or “Goodbye, and may you be blessed”. It gets rather confusing. My assignment is to figure out for myself what the phrase Blessed Be is all about. Let’s gather the facts first. The phrase “Blessed Be” comes from the ritual Drawing Down the Moon. Created by Gerald Gardner, it’s purpose is to…

efforts to show her off. Although her skin was too light to match the blacks in Harlem, it was much too dark to fit in with the white community in Denmark. In this instance, her difference is considered beautiful and her relatives racialize Helga by treating her as a mysterious exotic creature to decorate rather than a human being because of her black blood. Similarly, the white women of Denmark do not view Helga in the same light that they view one another. At a party, Helga attracted the…

millions of years ago, the moon was created. Many believe it all started when a mars-sized planet impacted the Earth. Afterwards caught in the Earth’s orbit and soon formed into what became the moon. Up till now, scientists now acknowledge theories of the moon, the moon’s environment, and plenty know the understandings and compositions of the moon. Currently, the moon isn’t as uncommonly unknown to us now, ever since a little over four hundred years ago. That is, the moon - in theory - has…
