• The heavens proclaim the glory of God.
      The skies display his craftsmanship.
  ² Day after day they continue to speak;
      night after night they reveal knowledge.
  ³ They speak without a sound or word;
      their voice is never heard.
  ⁴ Yet their message has gone throughout the earth,
      and their words to all the world.      Psalm 19
  

  

  I was so transfixed by a star that caught my attention last night as I was closing the blinds before bed...

  Then today I read this on my Facebook.

  Sirius, nighttime’s brightest star, is so enchanting that every year, beginning in the fall, we get many, many questions about a multicolored star twinkling in the southeastern to southern sky after midnight.

  This star is Sirius in the constellation Canis Major the Greater Dog. Here's when and how to see it: http://bit.ly/9Rdd6F

  It was the changing colors that had me transfixed... I didn't trust what I was looking at.  There is no way to describe it, you just have to see it.
