Frequently asked questions
- When is the next full moon?
- The next full moon is on August 28, in Pisces — 21 days from now. The list above has every one for the year.
- Where do the full moon names come from?
- The Wolf, Snow and Harvest Moons come from North American farmers' almanacs, which named each month's full moon after what the season brought. The names stuck because they are easy to love; they carry no astrological meaning of their own.
- Why does the sign of a full moon matter?
- A full moon always stands opposite the Sun, so it falls in the sign opposite the season's — and tradition reads it as that sign's themes coming to a head: what was building quietly becomes visible.
