The final Full Moon of 2020 peaks early this month, shining at its pearly brightest on Wednesday, December 7 at 11:08 p.m. Eastern.

The final Full Moon of the year is also called Oak Moon, the Moon before Yule, and Long Night Moon — but it doesn’t coincide with the actual longest night of the year in 2022.

The Winter Solstice is Wednesday, December 21 at 4:48 p.m. Eastern.

Join us as we come together to connect and celebrate nature and ourselves in and around the Cold Moon.

The Frost Moon is a good reminder for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere to hunker down for the coming winter.

In 2022, the Frost Moon will be at its brightest on Tuesday, November 8 at 6:02 a.m. Eastern.

November’s Full Moon is also called the Beaver Moon and the Snow Moon.

This year, the Frost Moon features yet another total lunar eclipse, which will be at its peak at 5:59 a.m. Eastern on the same morning.

Join us as we come together to connect and celebrate nature and ourselves in and around the Frost Moon.

The Blood Moon is also nicknamed the Travel Moon, Dying Grass Moon, Hunter’s Moon, and the Sanguine Moon (which is a fancy way to say “blood red”).

Reap what you have sown as the Harvest Moon rises on Saturday, September 10 at 5:59 a.m. Eastern.

This is also called Corn Moon, Fruit Moon, Barley Moon, and Hungry Ghost Moon.

The Harvest Moon is the name given to describe either the September or October Full Moon — which Full Moon earns the monicker actually depends on the timing of the Fall Equinox. Whichever month’s Full Moon is closest to the Equinox earns the title — and in 2022, September wins the battle.

The Fall Equinox is on Thursday, September 22, at 9:04 p.m. Eastern.

Join us as we come together to connect and celebrate nature and ourselves in and around the Harvest Moon.
