Today's Word "sublunary"


Sublunary \suhb-LOO-nuh-ree\ (adjective) - Situated beneath the moon; hence, of or pertaining to this world; terrestrial; earthly.
"They acquire sublunary bodies, just as did the fallen Watchers when they joined with the daughters of men. Sublunary bodies meant they were stripping themselves of power." -- Faith Hunter, 'Host'
Sublunary is from the Latin sublunaris, from sub, "under" + luna, "the moon."
