Hi all, Though not being well versed in hunting, it seems me the to go
hunting during a large moon might be something of a disadvantage because
your prey would see you long before you (the hunter)saw it (the prey).
Could
this term "Hunter's Moon" be a deviation both linguistically and
metaphorically for "HUNTRESS" Moon? The reason I ask, is because it would
make more sense for me to go hunting during the day and not the night. I
am
a fisherman, and I know through my own experience, that if you go fi****ng
for sea trout and salmon on a full moon, you highly likely to return home
with an empty bag - they just don't want to bite with all that moonlight
around. Anyway getting back to my main Idea - That Diana was the lunar
deity
that was called "The huntress" her symbol (or one of them was a crescent
moon or bow). To go hunting under a crescent moon would help when hunting
at
night could offer some advantage against ones prey - especially in a
N.European setting. Don't be too hard on me, I hope someone else
understands
what I am trying to say. Anyone got any thoughts here? Regards to all,
