December's full moon
Posted: Sat Dec 25, 2004 4:36 pm
The December Full Moon has many names:
Oak Moon, Snow Moon, Frost Moon, Blood Moon, Cold Moon, Wolf Moon, Long Nights' Moon, Moon before Yule, Moon of Long Nights, Big Winter Moon, Moon of Popping Trees.
Since I work nights, I'll be able to check it out once I'm making a gasoline delivery. Tonight should be the waxing of the full moon and tomorrow should be the full moon.
And since the full moon is occurring so close to the Solstice, tonight's, or tomorrow's, full moon will have the longest transit time across the sky of any full moon of the year. I need to check on that.
N E Who. Get some eggnog, put on a coat, and check it out.
