We have a Hunter’s Moon coming up on Sunday, October 13. As most everyone knows, the full moons of the year all have names associated with them. This one, the Hunter’s Moon is the first full moon following the Harvest Moon. The Harvest Moon, of course, is the full moon closest to the autumnal equinox. So the Hunter’s Moon usually occurs in October, but because of differences in the timing of the Harvest Moon, it occasionally occurs in November.
