Usually, we get to see the full orb of light in the night sky once a month but once in a while, the phenomenon is repeated one more time. In October 2020, there are going to be two full moons, with the first one on October 1 and the second on October 31, Halloween. This month's first full moon has a name for itself and it's called the Harvest full moon. It will be visible after sunset and will be reaching peak illumination at 5:06 P.M. Eastern Time, according to Farmer's Almanac.

What is the harvest full moon?

The harvest full moon got its name from the Algonquin people, who used to live along the Atlantic Coast, along the interior of the St. Lawrence River, and around the Great Lakes. Around the full moon, the moon rises 30 minutes later each night, which gives farmers more time to harvest. Historically, the extra light used to be precious for the agrarian community, according to the Farmer's Almanac.

Once you start doing things how you want them, it will help you gain confidence. That means you will stop looking to others to feel good about yourself. Once you start believing in yourself around the full moon and know what this energy feels like, you will not want to go back to how things were.
