Full Hunter’s Moon – October 22, 9.46 pm EST
Hunter’s Moon is the name for the full moon that immediately follows the full Harvest Moon. The title of full Harvest Moon belongs to the full moon occurring closest to the autumnal equinox. In 2010, the September full moon fell only 6 hours after this equinox.
What’s special about the Harvest Moon? Be aware that the Harvest and Hunter’s Moons are seasonal events, and of course the seasons are opposite in Earth’s northern and southern hemispheres. These moons are northern hemisphere events, then. In the southern hemisphere around now, people are seeing a moon whose characteristics match those of our springtime full moons.
What are the characteristics of the autumn full moons? The Hunter’s Moon – like the Harvest Moon – is famous for ushering in dusk-till-dawn moonlight for several nights in a row. At mid and far northern latitudes, the lamp of the Hunter’s Moon helps to compensate for the waning October daylight. Nature provides a balance, for us Earth dwellers.
The Hunter’s Moon – also known as Blood Moon or Sanguine Moon.
