Lots of names for this #celestial #spectacle: the #BloodMoon, the #FullMoon, even March's #WormMoon.

Most importantly, #MoonGazers, it's the #TotalLunarEclipse, and what we call the #Night of the #KrononautMoon, the Night when #TimeTravelers are invited to come visit, or send us a #quantum #signal from the #beyond!

The Krononaut Moon Project (@KronoMoon) is collecting Full Moon #photos from the far reaches of the #Fediverse, all Thursday Night & all Friday Night, 2025 Mar 13-14. We love a #MoonShot that includes #people in it (or Time Travelers!) — what we call a "#Moonsie". The Total Lunar Eclipse occurs around 07:00 UTC Friday.

Watch the Moon & #Stars this week, and please note any #anomalous #phenomena (#UFOs or #UAP). Share your #documentation with @KronoMoonPhotos & @KronoMoon, or contact: Photos@KronoMoon.org

#photo titled #Moonsie with #Community #TimeTravel #Researcher.

Early #Crescent of March's #Moon (in soft focus) — the #WormMoon — the #KrononautMoon (-12 nights). In less than 2 weeks The Total Lunar Eclipse will be here, the night when Time Travelers are invited to make contact.

Welcome all extradimensionals & ordinary beings on Thu-Fri night 2025 Mar 14 UTC 07:00 — under the Full Moon & the Total Lunar Eclipse! Please take lots of #Moon #photos & share them with @KronoMoonPhotos & @KronoMoon, noting any anomalous phenomena (#UFOs or #UAPs). Everyone is invited, wherever you are.

#Toot & #photo from a year ago, 2024 Jan 26, under January's #WolfMoon. A #selfie with the #Moon in the same picture is called a #Moonsie. (#Moonsies can also include #pets, #architecture, your #garden, your #art, whatever you like. They often take a little extra fiddling because of the distances.)

Monday is January's #FullMoon — the #WolfMoon.

It's now exactly 2 #lunar cycles to the #TotalLunarEclipse on 2025 Mar 14, the Night of the #KrononautMoon, and our invitation to #TimeTravelers to come visit or send us a #quantum #signal. (To be followed by 2 more Total Lunar Eclipses in the next year!)

Here's our extended version #Checklist for the Night of the Krononaut Moon, a celebration of Time Travel. (Original post located here: https://me.dm/@KronoMoon/113610202533882675).

Coming our way next on 2025 Mar 14 #UTC 07:00, 2 months from now.

#Observe the #Moon & #stars that night, wherever & however you like, with friends & colleagues or on your own. Local #times flexible.

#Connect with the #cosmos & with your #past & #future #selves. Send a #signal to #beings in the #future(s). #Candles & safe #campfires are good; #music & #dancing are good; #radio #wave #antennas are good. Be experimental!

Click & share many #photos of the #Moon, with you (and your #family / #pets) under it — what we call a #Moonsie — and any nearby #UFOs. Share your #images with @KronoMoon & @KronoMoonPhotos.

#Enjoy a deepened #moment of #peace, #love, #authenticity & #meaning, with other #Mastodonians around the #world & #beyond — wherever you are.

Now this is what we call a #Moonsie. When we started @KronoMoonPhotos, we expected lots of #portraits that would include one's #self &/or one's #pet with the #Moon in the same frame — what we call a #Moonsie. After boosting and retooting hundreds of #MoonPhotos it's been rare to see an example as bold as this one of a wide-eyed #orange #cat in a #tree (a #treehouse?) illuminated by a bright #fullMoon shining overhead. Let's all share more #Moonsies in 2025!

Iconic #MoonPhoto retooted from Don Ray (@donray). Thank you, Don Ray. Happy Holidays, and we would love to share more of your work in the new year.

At @KronoMoon, we especially love vernacular down-home & community scenes under the #Moon, like this lovely #MoonPhoto retooted from Brett Hodnett (@Cyclesoc). When the image includes a person or a pet, we call it a #moonsie, although a local #architecture #moonsie works pretty well, too. Lovely picture, Brett, and we hope to be sharing more of your work in the new year.

(Friends, see our curatorial revision in the comments, below.)

Lighted foreground sand into dark ocean and dark night sky.

Transitional #beach #scene with bright white #moon in the #nightsky, right of center, casting a bright rippling #white #reflection on the dark #ocean. #Town lights & #boats in the leftward distance. With its tiny human figures scattered about, this qualifies as a #Moonsie. Another stunning #MoonPhoto from our #foto #friend Salvo Micciché (@salvomic).

Truly #mastodonian fiery #Moon rising over #conifer #treetops in a silky deep blue #sky. Down below are the lights of a town in #twilight, in the #shadow of a hillside along #Lake #Sammamish, #PNW, #WA #US. Technically, this is a #Moonsie, featuring a #paddler in the middle distance.

Another striking #MoonPhoto retooted from #photog EZ Lorenz (@EZLorenzImagery). You make it look easy, EZ!

Attention: #Lunar #Photogs, casual & professional!
At @KronoMoonPhotos we #boost or #retoot your #photos of the #MoonOverMastodon. That's what we do.

When a #MoonPhoto includes a #friend, #pet, or one's #self, it's called a #Moonsie. (Note: #lighting and #focus on a #Moonsie can be challenging and may require an extra attempt — ie, bracket your #exposure.) Our header image, itself a fine example of a #Moonsie, is by Emilia Niedźwiedzka (@SilverForMyMonsters) of #Unsplash, Poland, 2019.

Share your #home snapshots of our #goddess of the #night via #KronoMoonPhotos (we love #backporch #views). We follow several #Moon & #Photo hashtags. If something is not right, we will fix it.
Part of the @KronoMoon Project. #KrononautMoon

Q: What is the #URL of this #toot?

At @KronoMoonPhotos we would like to link directly to great #MoonShots & #Moonsie #Photos, but #Mastodon has a complicated system for identifying a single #toot (post). #Sharing a toot works well via the #boost button, but we would like to link directly to the URL of a specific toot. Could some kind #Moonling out there tell us the URL of this toot, so that we can see how the encoding works? If this can't work, would a URL shortener be a solution for us? Thank you!
#MoonsOfMastodon

Terrific examples of #Full #Moonsies (previous) and #Crescent #Moonsies.
Let's include our friends, colleagues, #Cats, #Dogs & #Selves in our #Moon #Photos (because we don't see enough of these, and Mastodon deserves better)!

Add our hashtag #Moonsie for a big boost (up to the Moon?) and follow us on @KronoMoonPhotos. Collecting pics of #MoonLovers + the #Moon on #Mastodon!

Watch here for more photos from @djflore & other #photog friends -- from pros to first-timers! Show us your #Moonsies! (Note the 'S' near the middle of #MoonSies -- we are image boosters, not a #religious #cult.)
