Eclipse on Saturday, October 14th!
Hi Reader,
I wanted to send you an update about the eclipse on Saturday morning because it is a very cool ring of fire eclipse. I also want to give you a heads up that the change in light and temperature could potentially be a trigger for those of you who have migraine attacks or other neurological conditions.
The annular eclipse on Saturday is a partial eclipse (about 91%) so you might notice that the light outside gets very strange. This can be disorienting and feel unnatural. When the moon passes between the earth and the sun, it also drops the temperature a little bit. These sensory changes can be confusing to the brain because they don't normally happen at that time of day. I want you to be prepared for whatever you have planned on Saturday morning so that you can enjoy watching it with eclipse glasses or you can take preventive measures to be inside and away from the light changes. Important note - make sure you wear eclipse glasses if you look at the sun. Sunglasses are NOT enough to protect your eyes, so make sure you pick up some eclipse glasses from your local hardware store or supermarket.
I am about 20 miles north of the full viewing zone, and will be seeking out a prime spot to see it. The path of the annular solar eclipse on Saturday runs from Oregon to Texas in the US, then to Mexico, Central and South America. Most places in North America will be able to see part of the eclipse. If you can't view it on Saturday, there are several more eclipses coming up in the next year if you are interested.
Cheers,

Happy Fall and happy full moon! Last month I talked about vertigo resources and this month I am talking about sleep. The season is changing and here in Oregon we went from summer to fall VERY quickly. The light is also changing so now we have less than 12 hours of sunlight every day. These changes as we head into winter will change your energy levels and your sleep. You might find that you are ready for bed earlier than you were in the summer and that it's harder to get out of bed in the...
Happy end of July! Hope your summer is going well. I've been finding this is a tired summer, and having some wildfire smoke has made it more of a restful, indoor summer.
