In Samburu culture, young boys and women are expected to sing through the night during a lunar eclipse, staying awake until the moon “comes back to life.” The practice symbolizes the community’s deep connection to the moon, which plays a central role in their traditions and celebrations. In a recent video from Baragoi, Samburu North, schoolboys are seen honoring this custom—singing outside with buckets in hand as part of the ritual to welcome back the moon. | Samburu Newsflash
