When the Sun and the Moon met for the first time, they became passionately lost and from there they began to live a great love.
It happens that the world did not exist yet and the day that God decided to create it, then gave them a final touch ... The brightness!
It was also decided that the Sun would illuminate the day and that the Moon would illuminate the night, thus, they would be obliged to live separately.
They were overcome by great sadness and when they realized that they would never meet again, LA Luna became increasingly distressed. Despite the brightness given by God, she became Lonely.
The Sun in turn, had won a title of nobility "Astro Rey", but that did not make him happy either.
God, seeing this, called them and explained to them: - You must not be sad, both now you have a shine of your own. You, Luna, will illuminate the cold and hot nights, you will charm the lovers and you will frequently be the protagonist of beautiful poems. As for you, Sol, you will sustain that title because you will be the most important of the stars, you will illuminate the earth during the day, you will provide warmth to the human being and your simple presence will make people happier.
The Moon was much sadder with her terrible fate and she wept bitterly ... and the Sun, seeing her suffer so much, decided that she could not let herself go down any more, since she would have to give her strength and help him accept what God had decided.
Even so, his concern was so great that he decided to make a special request to Him: - Lord, help the Moon please, is more fragile than me, will not stand loneliness ...
And God ... in his immense goodness ... I believe then the stars to keep the Moon company.
The Moon, whenever it is very sad, resorts to the stars, who do everything to comfort her, but almost never achieve it.
Today, both live like this ... separated, the Sun pretends that he is happy, and the Moon can not hide his sadness.
The Sun burns with passion for the Moon and she lives in the darkness of her longing. They say that God's command was that the Moon should always be full and luminous, but it did not ... because it is a woman, and a woman has phases.
When she is happy, she becomes full, but when she is unhappy she is waning and when she is waning it is not even possible to appreciate her brightness.
Luna and Sun follow their destiny. He, lonely but strong; She, accompanied by stars, but weak.
Men try, constantly, to conquer it, as if that were possible. Some have even gone to her, but have always returned alone. Nobody ever managed to bring her to earth, nobody, really, managed to conquer her, no matter how hard they tried.
It happens that God decided that no love in this world was completely impossible, not even that of the Moon and the Sun ... It was then that He created the eclipse.
Today Sun and Moon live waiting for that moment, those rare moments that were granted and that cost so much, happen.
When you look at the sky, from now on, and see that the Sun covers the Moon, it is because you lie on it and you begin to love yourself. It is to that act of love that it was given the name of eclipse.
It is important to remember that the brightness of your ecstasy is so great that it is advised not to look at the sky at that moment, your eyes can be blinded by seeing so much love.
You already knew that the Earth existed Sun and Moon ... and also that there is an eclipse ... but this is the part of the story that you did not know.
The word Sun has its origin in the Latin term sol, solis, which meant exactly the same: Sun, the luminous star, center of our planetary system. Some related Latin words are solium, which means "throne, seat" - perhaps that is why the Romans called our star the chariot or throne of Apollo, and the Egyptians, the chariot of Amun; solus, alone, unique; and solidus, solid, consistent. The root goes back to the presnscribed sû, which means "he who generates life".
As for the Moon, the Romans already used this term to designate our natural satellite and those of any other planet, and today it also serves to name the glass of a shop window or a windshield. The Latin word luna was a contraction of lucina, which like lux, lucis -light-, shine-shine, shine- or lumen -light, light- came from the Indo-European root Leuk-, present in the Greek leukós, bright white . Originally, therefore, the voice moon would mean "the luminous one, the one that illuminates" and evoked an active force of feminine character, like the Greek goddess Selene. Other derivatives are on Monday (de dies Lunae), lunatic, interlunium and full moon.
