Is your forecast clear this weekend? Turn your eyes to the sky to see November's Full Beaver Moon.
The last Full Moon of Fall 2023 rises Sunday night. Due to its exact timing at 4:17 a.m. EST, Monday, November 27
That gives us plenty of opportunities to enjoy the splendor of the Full Moon.
Every Full Moon during the year has a name popularized by the various Farmers Almanacs.
Most of these names were adopted from the lunar calendars invented and used by the First Nations peoples that lived in what is now the northeastern United States.
Some, like the Harvest Moon and Hunter's Moon, instead reference Colonial American or European folklore.
It's interesting to note that these First Nations lunar calendars didn't just use these names for the Full Moons.
