SEP 15, 2008 - Full Moon Names is a timely nexus on the World Wide Web, what with the full moon rising in the east this evening. This particular full moon is the Harvest Moon, in the nomenclature based on the lore of northeastern North American native peoples. It is, in short, the full moon nearest the autumnal equinox, the astronomical first day of autumn. A good time to be out and about after sunset, admiring the beauty of our world; or taking advantage of the bright moonlight to harvest the crops that normally ripen at this time of the year in the temperate northern hemisphere. Full Moon Names, courtesy of the Farmers' Almanac, gives you the quick lowdown on all the named Full Moons; which might just put you in touch with a more natural approach to life.
