Full Moon – Saturday, 10th September

Rising just after 8pm on Saturday evening, the Full Moon will brighten our skies. While September’s Full Moon is usually known as the Harvest Moon, if October’s Full Moon happens to occur closer to the autumnal equinox (September 23rd) than September’s, it takes on the name “Harvest Moon” instead. In this case, September’s Full Moon is referred to as the Corn Moon.

A transitional time between summer and autumn – many of the names (with the associated tribe) for this Full Moon reflects this:

  • Autumn Moon (Cree)
  • Falling Leaves Moon (Ojibwe)
  • Leaves Turning Moon (Anishinaabe)
  • Moon of Brown Leaves (Lakota)
  • Yellow Leaf Moon (Assiniboine)

Other Indian tribes would refer to this moon as:

  • Moon When the Plums Are Scarlet (Lakota Sioux)
  • Moon When the Deer Paw the Earth (Omaha)
  • Moon When the Calves Grow Hair (Sioux)
