Blue Moon 2012


Blue Moon 2012: August To Bring Two Full Moons, an Astronomical Rarity

The first of the two full moons occurs tonight (Aug. 1st). This will be a lunar preview for a "blue moon" rising at the end of Aug. The moon will reach its full phase at 11:27 p.m. EDT tonight (03:27 GMT on Aug. 2nd). It returns big and bright as a full blue moon, Aug 31st. Night sky observers won't have a chance to see two full moons in a single month again until July 2015.

August is the 8th month and holds an 8th numeric vibration. This number represents accomplishments and achievements in money, business, finance, and entrepreneurship. However, it’s best to wait until after August 8 and the passing of the Mercury Retrograde to enter into any financial or career changing endeavor.

August 2012 will feature not 1 but 2 full moons. The full moon occurs once every 29.5 days. This essentially means that there is one full moon every month. However, as we know, every month but February has at least 30 days in it, which presents the potential for two full moons in a month.

August 2012 - is one of these unique months, which will have two full moons. There will be a full moon on August 2nd, and then another full moon on August 31st.

So those of us whom are superstitious in regards to full moons will have two special days in August of 2012.

The term Blue Moon can refer to the second full moon in a given month. When people say "once in a blue moon" they are speaking to the rarity of the occurrence of a second moon happening in the same given month.

Wow!! This is exciting!! Right as so many changes are happening in this world... Things are getting crazy around here!! Once in a while we need to take a moment to just breathe, look up at the amazing night sky, and remember that everything will fall into place at the right time. Thanks for tagging! :)
