2014.10.8

It was fine, and partially cloudy.
Therefore I worried about kaiki gesshoku (皆既月食), the total lunar eclipse. But fortunately I could see it even in Tokyo.
 
Today is kannro (寒露), one of nijyushisekki (二十四節季), the 24 solar terms. The last one was risshu (立秋) on September 23 and the next one is soko (霜降 ) on October 23.  Kanro literally means cold dew.
