I’ve noticed the last couple nights it was already looking like a full moon, but tonight is the official “Super Blood Flower Moon”. Sounds kinda intense right…lol
A Super Moon is when the moon is “ever-so-slightly” closer to Earth. So the Full moon appears even bigger and brighter than usual. This Flower Moon will be the biggest and brightest full Moon of this year.
Why is called the Flower Moon? I found the reasoning for it, in “The Old Farmer’s Almanac”:
The Flower Moon
May’s Flower Moon name should be no surprise; flowers spring forth across North America in abundance this month!
