Shooting Star in Orion Constellation 22nd December

Hi All,

Last night, Monday 22nd December, at about 7.30pm ish I happened to look up at the stars. It's something I normally tend to do most nights however I was greeted with something much more spectacular than what I normally see.

I saw the most magnificent Shooting Star streak across the constellation of Orion, just below the belt of Orion. It started as just a small ball of light, then got brighter and all of a sudden a huge tail formed as it streaked forward.

It was an amazing sight!

Having seen Shooting Stars before myself, and only had a glimpse of such, to happen to be looking at a constellation before it happened and then see the glory of this Shooting Star, it left me speechless.

Suddenly I thought 'make a wish' and I did so without thinking about what I wanted to wish for, and thus my wish came from my heart. I am very grateful and feel quite humble that my wish came true within that very hour!

It just goes to show that however bad things can be in the world, there is hope for all.

Just wondering, did anyone else see the same Shooting Star as it was so bright and lasted so long?

Hi Techno - that's amazing ! Wish I had seen it too.  It must be a good omen for your recent move.    In 2001, the day we paid our deposit on our house in Spain, we went for a walk that night and had a similar experience.  That was the first time i'd seen a real shooting star.  It felt great and I knew then that we'd done the right thing.  Wonder if anyone took any photos of the one you saw?
