Start Spreading the News

Today, May 28, the sun is aligned to precisely 30 degrees east of north. And that means only one thing, it's New York = Stonehenge Day.

At Fraters Libertas, we welcome this astronomical event with the singing of the traditional May 28 carol (with apologies to Frank Sinatra and Nigel Tufnel):

New York, where the demons dwell
Where the banshees live and they do live well
New York

Where a man is a man and the children dance to
the pipes of pan
New York

Tis a magic place where the moon doth rise
With a dragon's face
New York

Where the virgins lie
And the prayer of devils fill the midnight sky

And you my love, won't you take my hand
We'll go back in time to that mystic land
Where the dew drops cry and the cats meow
I will take you there, I will show you how
New York


Stonehenge, New York City, the lyrics to that song fit seamlessly. An amazing coincidence. Or is it?

Happy New York = Stonehenge Day.
