August 31st’s Blue Moon

According to modern folklore, a Blue Moon is the second full moon of a calendar month. Learn how this name came to be, in this post. August 2012 is a month with two full moons. And, by popular acclaim, that means it’s a Blue Moon month – but Blue in name only. That’s because a Blue Moon is sometimes defined as the second full moon in a calendar month. The first full moon was August 1. The second full moon was August 31, 2012. The second full moon of August 2012 is the Blue Moon. (link)
