Oh, clear morning sunshine. Mei-Shun might see it weeks before: 梅雨 rainy season 2026 started on June 7th, keeps so cool that reminds her of childhood. Yes, our nurturing Sun stays in the highest sky at 夏至=geshi, the 4th of summer 二十四節気. Did 織姫 and 彦星 met last night, crossing the Milky Way? At least above clouds, where we expect a 下弦 half moon tonight.
We are on the last day of solar 水無月 2026, while 夏越の大祓 expecting a full moon. Shin headed Kyoto where people relish that traditional sweet. Mei-Shun planted Momo-chan babies onto the ground, just next to their mother tree. Since the husband currently refrains from calorific foods, the wife sometimes joins with him – it serves for her own weight control.
Mei-Shun found many 提灯 lamps at the nearest station; hung along pedestrian lane, or held like a wide ladder. Such a night view reminds her of 祇園祭, when festival enthusiasm covers whole of our ancient capital. On the other paw of fluffy Mikan-chan, we might miss the 2nd most exquisite 十三夜 expected tomorrow. Rare, serial storms followed by 2 typhoons are forecast.
Lunar May started today. It brought 大安=tai-an as well, the best among 六曜. Mom feels happy; it was one of her favorite months when younger, while 仏滅=butsu-metsu, the worst removed from solar calendars. By the way, she has learned that photos of Mademoiselle Vert do not need shade change: her mobile phone carries a good camera. 3 flowers followed on weekend, purr.

Hmm, it is cool today. Rainy season 2026 started on 7th, Sunday while seems to take us back toward refreshing solar May. It was so humid in the last week, that horsey riding served a cascade under Mei-Shun’s clothes. On the other paw of Mikan-chan, clouds of her coat shade have covered that celestial beauty for as long as 10 days; including 二十六夜, a thin crescent appeared this dawn.
Good evening, 十日夜の月=10th or to-kan-ya-no moon. She has long been celebrated following 十三夜, the second most beautiful who does the best 十五夜. Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun wondered if they could meet her, since gray clouds filled morning sky. By the way, Shin will be on board for Frankfurt tonight. He would therefore experience above twice, thanks to a little time travel.
Thanks a million, Professor M. Mei-Shun saw above 2nd crescent as well by chance, when she held a shutter over a western window. It seems quite rare to find it so clear: 3rd one, her favorite gives more advent. On the other paw of prettiest Mikan-chan, she would also show gratitude toward our public broadcaster – it featured her pet sumo wrestler even after 17:00, then short news aired.
25th crescent gently greeted Mei-Shun, who slipped out of front door before 5:00. Although sunrise has got much earlier, that celestial beauty still helps. 五月場所 sumo tournament started at 両国 from yesterday, when her favorite rikishi won. Since he came back into the highest 幕内 rank, it was the 1st 白星 on 初日. Now is the time for her to walk toward a hair salon, in high heels as usual.
We are on March 22nd, my day on lunar calendar. Mom purchased an arrangement of red carnation, prepared for coming Sunday. Grandma of her side stays in 草津, who prefers planted flowers to arranged ones. She therefore praises me on Princess Cymby and Mademoiselle Vert every year, purr. The former finished her stage, handed a gold baton toward the latter.

… Shin brought home, thanks a million: he returned from U.S.A. late last night. A bottle of exquisite whiskey born in our country sits within a wooden box. On the other paw of Mikan-chan, a glittering paper bag accommodates famous American chocolates. Oh, big and beautiful 十五夜 moon appeared in eastern sky. What scores would Mei-Shun practice, after a daytime storm?
