for June

I remember on our way home from the movies the day after the worm moon it was mostly full but I could tell in was waning a little, my friend says now that the moon is full, she can see the "rabbit in the moon" while western mythology says that when you look at the moon you see the face of the "man in the moon", but it's interesting that in East Asian cultures they see a Rabbit in the moon (also called the Jade Rabbit) my friend knew about this but says most of the time she can't see it. On an interesting note Aztec folklore said that when the moon was created it was as bright as the sun so in order to make it darker a rabbit ran across the moon and you could see it's tracks on the moon.
Thanks for this!
