Computus The full moon is an ecclesiastical full moon determined by reference to a lunar calendar, which again varied in different areas. While Easter now falls at the earliest on the 15th of the lunar month and at the latest on the 21st, in some areas it used to fall at the earliest on the 14th (the day of the paschal full moon) and at the latest on the 20th, or between the sixteenth and the 22nd.

- Brace yourself for some major celestial multitasking tonight. First, there will be a partial lunar eclipse that, unfortunately for you stargazers out there, won't be visible from Earth. Then at 5:27 a.m. EST Thursday morning, the moon will be totally full, marking the official start of the Corn Moon phase in the Pagan calendar. While you'll be able to see only one of these lunar events, you'll be sure to feel the effects of both.

Month of the blue moon and August Sturgeon moon The moon takes on a blue appearance due to tiny water droplets in the air in Watauga, Texas in October, 2003. Here in Washington, we get two full moons in August. One is tonight (Aug.1) and the next on Aug. 31. In recent decades, the popular-notion, folksy people define a blue moon as the second full moon in a month. But in order to have a second full moon in a one-month period, you must have a first.

- But the 2016 Harvest moon does count as a bigger-than-average full moon. That’s because this full moon is near perigee, the closest point to Earth in its monthly orbit. This full moon comes on September 16 at 1905 UTC; translate to your time zone. Perigee comes on September 18 around 1700 UTC. So it’s not the biggest possible moon on our sky’s dome, but it’s slightly bigger than usual.

What Is A Snow Moon? All Your Need To Know About February's Full Moon That Coincides With A Lunar Eclipse Full moons occur every 29.5 days and each month’s full moon has a traditional nickname that can be traced back hundreds of years to Native American tribes. The full moon in February, which is typically the month receiving the most amount of snow, has been aptly named the Snow Moon. This year, the Snow Moon — which has also been called the Hunger Moon by some tribes — is accompanied by a penumbral lunar eclipse, which will cast a shadow over the bright moon’s surface.
