Full Pink Moon tonight
The common name of April’s full moon is, Full Pink Moon. This name came from the herb moss pink, or wild ground phlox, which is one of the earliest widespread flowers of the spring.
Other names for this month’s celestial body include the Full Sprouting Grass Moon, the Egg Moon, and among coastal tribes the Full Fish Moon, because this was the time that the shad swam upstream to spawn.
In 1973 Pink Floyd recorded the classic Dark Side of the Moon, so it is appropriate to play a couple of tracks.

For northerners who may be curious about how the “other half” lives, or southerners looking for a fresh perspective, I’ve compiled my top eight favorite things. Read them here.
