🌕 FULL MOON – THE STURGEON MOON
🗓 09 August 2025 | 13:24 IST
✨ Rises at dusk, sets at dawn —
lighting up the night sky in its fullest glory!
🔭 Known as the “Sturgeon Moon” in the modern calendar,
a name popularized by the Farmers’ Almanac,
rooted (partially) in Native American lore.
🌾 Ancient traditions offer more:
— “Weed Month” (Weod-mōnaþ) in Saxon England
— “Harvest Month” (Aran-mānod) in Carolingian times
🗓 This is the second full moon after the June solstice,
a marker of late summer skies and seasonal change.
No matter the name, it’s a moon worth watching.
Step outside and bask in the glow of time and tradition!
