Lunar Twilight 2020 - the fifth night: The Cars Drive

All of 2020 is yet to be gone, for the last Moon carries a fading light.  We still have a week till the first Moon of 2021 is born.  Until then, when the Sun rests, the fading Moon of 2020 returns, and allows to us make peace with past and recognize any necessary course corrections. 



The New Year's Celebration in the West is often a loud and ruckus affair, but in other cultures, there is more peaceful and somber fading of the old year.  During Lunar Twilight one can reflect back upon the past and hope for the upcoming future.  

As the Moon is the ruler of night, the last shadow of 2020 returns with a lunar glow. 

Of vexillological note in the original video from 1984 there is poster next to he band announcing happy hour from 5-7pm.  It is yellow and decorated with martini stencils.

 The tone of the song and video resonate wholly with the spirit of Lunar Twilight, as inner reflection and facing the truth are matters to ponder during Lunar Twilight.  This inner reflection is often lacking in today's modern world.
