October\u2019s full Moon reaches its peak on Sunday, October 9, 2022. Learn how the Hunter\u2019s Moon got its name\u2014plus, see Moon phase dates, Best Days by the Moon, folklore, and more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Hunter\u2019s Moon will reach peak illumination at 4:54 P.M. Eastern Time on Sunday, October 9. It will be below the horizon at this time, so we\u2019ll have to wait until sunset to watch it rise and take its place in the sky. Like September\u2019s Harvest Moon<\/a>, the Hunter\u2019s Moon rises around the same time for several nights in a row, so start looking for it on Saturday, October 8!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the Moon drifts over the horizon around sunset, it may appear larger and more orange\u2014how perfect for the fall season! But don\u2019t be fooled by the \u201cMoon Illusion<\/a>,\u201d which makes the Moon appear bigger than it really is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Harvest, the Hunter, and the Equinox<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

For decades, the Almanac has referenced the monthly full Moons with names tied to early Native American, Colonial American, and European folklore. Traditionally, each full Moon name was applied to the entire lunar month in which it occurred and through all of the Moon\u2019s phases\u2014not only the full Moon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Harvest Moon and the Hunter\u2019s Moon are unique in that they are not directly related to this folklore, nor necessarily restricted to a single month. Instead, they are tied to an astronomical event: the autumnal equinox<\/a><\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
