Admiring the supermoon in the hills of Diana: a magical night

A date not to be missed: this special evening’s Supermoon is the closest full Moon to the autumnal equinox in our hemisphere.
In some cultures it was called the Harvest Moon; Native Americans also used to call it the Mating Moon, in fact the mating season for deer and roe deer begins at this time . It will be a special opportunity to admire our satellite at the time of its “perigee,” walk illuminated by its light and walk together through the hills of the Diano d’Alba area.
Then tell mythological stories related to the figure of the Goddess Diana, worshipped in the past in this territory, stories of characters and animals, stories that will introduce us to the “love” customs of the ungulates that populate the silent nights of the hills.
It will be the last evening-night walk of a summer that is ending, in the most interesting period that precisely of the “Harvest” of the grapes.
It is possible, before departure, to enjoy a good aperitif accompanied by tasty pizzas at the panoramic balcony of the local “‘na Mica d’Pan,” or at the “Agricultural Union.”
