Last night, a full Harvest Moon peaked over Vancouver Island.
Each year, the full moons in September and October fight for the title of “Harvest Moon”, with the full Moon that occurs nearest to the equinox winning the title.
If October’s full Moon occurs closer to the equinox than September’s, the September full moon is then referred to as the Corn Moon.
Since last night’s full moon peaked only two days before the fall equinox, it won the title of “Harvest Moon”.
The moon rose in the southeast and reached peak illumination just after sunset.
Thankfully, the weather was on our side for perfect viewing of the sky last night.
For those who may have missed it last night here are 15 photos of last night’s full Harvest Moon over Victoria:
