Za Mooon

23 September 2008 by Tristan Gooley

My youngest son has added the word ‘moon’ to his vocabulary of about 7 words. It came as a bit of a surprise as I was in the kitchen early this morning when this strange sound, ‘za mooon’, kept coming out of his mouth. He took my hand, led me to the back door and then pointed up at the object in this photo, neatly solving the mystery of what ‘za mooon’ could possibly mean. Does this mean I might be bringing my work home with me too much?

Welcome to the home of natural navigation on the Internet.

Natural navigation is the art of being able to find your way solely by using nature. It encompasses using the sun, moon, stars, weather, water, land, sea, plants and animals.

The Natural Navigator is the school set up by Tristan Gooley to research and teach natural navigation. It is also the title of his book on the subject.

If you would like to know more about natural navigation you can browse the website, read about Tristan’s natural navigation book, or listen to a BBC Radio 4 interview with Tristan.
