Product Information

Many cultures have given distinct names to each month's full moon. The names were applied to the entire month in which each occurred. The Farmer's Almanac lists several names that are commonly used in the United States. There are some variations in the moon names, but in general, the same ones were used among the Algonquin tribes from New England on west to Lake Superior. European settlers followed their own customs and created some of their own names. At new moon, the moon is between Earth and the sun, so that the side of the moon facing toward us receives no direct sunlight, and is lit only by dim sunlight reflected from Earth. The penumbral lunar eclipse on May 5 was a very slight lunar eclipse in which the moon passed through the outermost edge of the Earth's shadow. It was visible from South/East Europe, Much of Asia, Australia, Africa, Pacific, Atlantic, Indian Ocean and Antarctica. The eclipse began at 10:11 a.m. EST (1511 GMT), the maximum eclipse was reached at 12:22 p.m. EST (1722 GMT) and the penumbral eclipse ended at 2:31 p.m. EST (1931 GMT), according to TimeandDate.com. The overall duration of the eclipse was 4 hours and 18 minutes. When Do the Seasons Start and End in 2023? | Spring Equinox, Summer Solstice, Fall Equinox, Winter Solstice | The Old Farmer's Almanac You may have noticed that the first day of spring is on a different date than when you were younger. The dates actually shift over time. Why? There are several reasons, but the one that’s easy to understand is: the Sun doesn’t follow a humancalendar!

And sometimes — once in a blue moon— the moon is full twice in a month (or four times in a season, depending on which definition you prefer). Space is provided to write daily appointments and to plan according to the Moon’s phase and planetary movement. Each month includes:Yes, the seasons are different lengths! Thanks to the elliptical shape of Earth’s orbit around the Sun, Earth doesn’t stay the same distance from the Sun year-round. In January, we reach the point in our orbit nearest to the Sun (called perihelion), and in July, we reach the farthest point ( aphelion). Read more about perihelion and aphelion.

There are two solar eclipses in 2023: a hybrid solar eclipse on April 20 and an annular solar eclipse on Oct. 14. Saturn in Pisces, (trine South Node/sextile North Node), continues to morph our attitudes towards responsibility, structure and authority as he continues on his journey to meet Neptune. Concepts and structures are inevitably becoming less ‘earth bound’ at this time and more in tune with our individual responsibilities towards the collective – developing more awareness of the ‘higher purpose’ of our existence. Native American teaching sometimes references the ‘broken Sacred Hoop’ – the idea that the physical and spiritual parts of our lives have become separated from each other. We need to heal the Sacred Hoop if we are to advance positively and holistically into the future. The winter solstice is the “shortest day” of the year, meaning the least amount of sunlight. The Sun reaches its most southern point in the sky (in the Northern Hemisphere) at local noon. After this date, the days start getting “longer,” i.e., the amount of daylight begins toincrease. While our Gregorian calendar was designed to match the time it takes for the Earth to complete one orbit around the Sun, it’s not exact. Specifically, it eliminates leap days in century years not evenly divisible by 400, such 1700, 1800, and 2100, and millennium years that are divisible by 4,000, such as 8000 and12000.In the Southern Hemisphere, where the seasons are switched, the Harvest Moon occurs in March and the Cold Moon is in June. According to Earthsky.org, these are common names for full moons south of the equator.

In 2023, there are two lunar eclipses: A penumbral lunar eclipse on May 5 and a partial lunar eclipse on Oct. 28. The moon can even create a "ring of fire" solar eclipse when it passes directly in front of the sun, but is at a point in its orbit that is too far from Earth to fully cover the sun's disk. This leaves a ring, or "annulus," around the moon to create what is called an annular solar eclipse. A few days later, the area of illumination continues to increase. More than half of the moon's face appears to be getting sunlight. This phase is called a waxing gibbous moon. You may be asking, “When is the first day of winter?” When do the four seasons of the year start—fall, winter, spring, summer? It depends on who you ask! Also, the dates of the equinoxes and solstices can change from year to year. Learn more about the four seasons (and guess which of the four seasons is theshortest!). When Do the SeasonsStart? It’s commonly assumed that the warmer seasons happen because Earth is nearer the Sun (and the colder seasons happen when Earth is farther from the Sun).Nope.Days later, the moon has moved another quarter of the way around Earth, to the third quarter position. The sun's light is now shining on the other half of the visible face of the moon. On the autumnal equinox, day and night are each about 12 hours long (with the actual time of equal day and night, in the Northern Hemisphere, occurring a few days after the autumnal equinox). The Sun crosses the celestial equator going southward; it rises exactly due east and sets exactly duewest. A week after the new moon, the moon is 90 degrees away from the sun in the sky and is half-illuminated from our point of view — what we call first quarter because it is about a quarter of the way around Earth. In other words, it takes Earth less time to go from the autumnal equinox to the vernal equinox than it does to go from the vernal equinox to the autumnalequinox.

Therefore, the dates of the equinoxes and solstices can shift by a day or two over time, which causes the start dates of the seasons to shift over time,too. Which Season is theShortest? My favorite season is spring, it also happens to be when my birthday is and when the flowers start to bloom! This makes me feel happy, the newness of life and color. Although I enjoy summer and fall because of color and temperature, spring is my favorite ❤️. Thanks for the pics of the seasons, beautifulWhen the moon has moved 180 degrees from its new moon position, the sun, Earth and the moon form a line. The moon’s disk is as close as it can be to being fully illuminated by the sun, so this is called full moon.
