What is a Full Moon?
When the moon appears perfectly round in the sky, it is known as a “full moon,” indicating that the disc of the moon is full or complete. Full moons happen on average every 29 days, and advances in astronomy have allowed scientists to carefully predict their patterns. Numerous traditions and superstitions are associated with the full moon in almost every culture on Earth, especially when the moon becomes eclipsed, as will happen now and then.
