Full Moon, Blue Moon on Halloween

We have a second full moon in October 2020… on Halloween.  A second full moon in the same month is called a blue moon.  It doesn’t happen often… thus the phrase, “Once in a blue moon!” This Halloween Blue moon is also known as The Hunter’s moon, signifying a time of Harvest.  It will occur at 8:49 am on Saturday in the sign of Taurus.  Enjoy, have fun, be safe, and make a wish!!!
