Moon­al­ice poster by Chris Shaw

Accord­ing to Moon­al­ice leg­end, the tribe cel­e­brated the com­ing of spring each year with a day of spir­i­tual awak­en­ing and hemp prod­ucts. The high­est of high holy days in the Moon­al­ice cal­en­dar. In ancient times, the cel­e­bra­tion began at dawn on April 20 and lasted as long as the par­tic­i­pants could remain stand­ing. In mod­ern times, the 420 cel­e­bra­tion typ­i­cally fea­tures live music. In addi­tion, true believ­ers observe daily rit­u­als with­out music, such as a col­lec­tive inhal­ing of breath at 4:20pm.

Look at today’s date. Look at the num­bers … April 20, 2008. 4–20-08. 04-20-2008. Do you see the pat­terns? 4x2=8. 4+2+2=8. 4-squared divided by 2=8. There’s some kind of con­spir­acy at work here. Prob­a­bly related to the Bermuda Tri­an­gle or the dis­ap­pear­ance of Judge Crater.
