Gidja, the moon: a Dreamtime myth
October 17, 2005Gidja was frequently ridiculed because of his girth. He loved Yalma, the Evening Star, and had a daughter Lilga, who became the Morning Star after she died the first death.
Tonight, Gidja will be in his finest hour. The penumbral eclipse occurred this morning if you were paying attention a little after 8:00 a.m. (It’s okay, I wasn’t either.)
