Does the thought of Friday the 13th freak you out? Well, today is another one, and it even coincides with a full moon, called the harvest moon, for most of North America. In the eastern time zone, the full moon does not occur until half an hour into Saturday the 14th. Good or bad? Some people could not care less and will go on with their day as any Friday. Others will avoid leaving the house or closing deals and in the US alone, we loose almost a billion dollars in commerce on Friday the 13th’s. If you are one of those staying inside today, you can safely order some safety reflectors from our webshop. There are black cats, but also pink ones and the cutest kittens in white, pink and silver. Whichever you choose, they will all increase your luck in not getting struck by a car in the dark! Also, they will be just as effective on any other night as on Friday the 13th!
Going back to the harvest moon: It is called that because it is harvest season and this is the full moon closest to fall equinox. Back in the days, before farm machines could light up the fields, the full moon gave farmers some much needed extra hours of harvest time. With equinox in just 10 days, on September 23, we’ll be back to when each day has more dark hours than light. So that is another good reason for getting some quality safety reflectors for yourself and for your family and friends. After all, it is better to be seen than sorry.
Have a safe day!
