Blue Moon Feature

The Other Side by RainerKalwitz

Hello Group,

I'm being told that tomorrow morning, July 31st at 6:44 a.m. (EST), there will be a "Blue Moon".

But what is a BLUE MOON?

First of all.. The phrase has nothing to do with the actual color of the moon.

In the 1940's, The Farmers Almanac offered these names for the Full Moon of each month.

January - Wolf Moon

February - Snow Moon

March - Worm Moon

April - Pink Moon

May - Flower Moon

June - Strawberry Moon

July - Buck Moon

August - Sturgeon Moon

September - Harvest Moon

October - Hunter's Moon

November - Beaver Moon

December - Cold Moon

And for the rare occasion in which one month contained two Full Moons, the second Full Moon will be called "Blue Moon".

Incidentally.. The last Blue Moon occurred August 31, 2012. And the next Blue Moon will occur January 31, 2018.

So.. In honor of this Blue Moon occurrin
