Event Description
December Full Moon – 3rd of 3 supermoons in a row
A perigee is when the moon ‘s orbit is closest to the earth and a supermoon is when the full or new moon coincide (or almost coincide) with the perigee. What does that mean? The moon looks exceptionally big because it is close!
Full moons have many names derived from various cultures reflecting what was happening in the natural world.
December’s full moon is known as the Cold Moon or Long Nights Moon. In addition to the shortest daylight day of the year, the Long Nights Moon pertains to the amount of time the moon is above the horizon. It takes a high trajectory across the sky because it is opposite to the low sun.
