Photo by Craig SpielmannCraig Spielmann took this eerie photo of the blue moon over Canyon Lake on Halloween night. A blue moon is an additional full moon that appears in a subdivision of a year: either the third of four full moons in a season or a second full moon in a month of the common calendar.
The phrase blue moon in modern usage has nothing to do with the actual color of the moon, although a visually blue moon may occur under certain atmospheric conditions.
The next blue moon will occur on August 22, 2021.
