Is it just me or was the last week an absolute horror show? I’m not referring to the backdrop of suffering playing out on our screens (regardless of Instagram trying to turn off political content). Or the tragic Baltimore bridge incident (are we actually living in a disaster movie?).
No, I’m just talking about the casual teeth-clenching anxiety of the everyday. You know, work stuff, mortgage rates, Jack on Married at First Sight. Don’t worry, this isn’t a call for help, it’s just been a ride. Thankfully, a quick Google search solved the mystery: we were in the eye of a lunar eclipse. For those of you not entirely au fait with planetary goings on, that means ‘being pushed outside our comfort zone’, ie: buckle up! Astrological advice says not to cook during a lunar eclipse (hello Deliveroo), or use sharp objects (do moustache scissors count?), or get stressed (two out of three isn’t bad).
