For anyone who is interested and can't preview this wonderful Sky Map for March, I can send you the website (and you can click on the heading above) so you can get it for your own latitude. Star gazing is my own personal way of keeping in touch with my place in the universe. Concerning outdoor activities of all kinds, being in touch with nature and our outside environment.....studies say that the average person only spends 10% of their time outdoors now. Shocking, isn't it? But I have to say, I'm not too surprised by that figure. It's my own theory that it is unnatural, unhealthy, physically and mentally, for a person to spend that much time indoors. I always feel a sense of renewal when I've been outdoors doing something. With Spring just around the proverbial corner, I find myself anxiously looking forward to being outdoors more, Sky Map in hand, learning more about the stars and feeling my place among them, riding my bike to work, gardening, taking monster walks with Rosie the beagle or just laying in the grass in the sun. ummmmm. I can hardly wait. First, Mexico!
