What do you see in the full Moon?

I was talking to my daughter while driving a few weeks ago, during the full moon and I happened to mention to here I always see the rabbit, never the man, because of something I learned in 3rd grade years ago. She said she always sees the man. I kind of briefly explained the legend I learned, she pointed out the man.

A Mesoamerican legend tells of the brave and noble sacrifice of Nanahuatzin during the creation of the fifth sun. Humble Nanahuatzin sacrificed himself in fire to become the new sun, but the wealthy god Tecciztecatl hesitated four times before he finally set himself alight to become the moon. Due to Tecciztecatl's cowardice, the gods felt that the moon should not be as bright as the sun, so one of the gods threw a rabbit at his face to diminish his light. It is also said that Tecciztecatl was in the form of a rabbit when he sacrificed himself.

This got me thinking how many people see which of the 2 most often, or better yet, something else.

**I have no intention of this being about creation or evolution or anything dealing on that level, I'd of posted in P&R (and science) forum if I cared**

Full Buck Moon (July)

July is normally the month when the new antlers of buck deer push out of their foreheads in coatings of velvety fur. It was also often called the Full Thunder Moon, for the reason that thunderstorms are most frequent during this time. Another name for this month's Moon was the Full Hay Moon.

I go back and forth between seeing the rabbit and the man... but lately I see the rabbit more.

Watching the moon always makes me feel peaceful... full or not.

I can vaguely see the man in the moon, but never the rabbit. Even with pictures of it highlighted Im always like that not a rabbit.
