September Full Moon - Harvest Moon

The September Full Moon - Harvest Moon is named the Harvest Moon as it usually appears just around the Autumn Equinox

The Harvest Moon unlike all the other full Moons, rises just about the same time—around sunset—for several evenings in a row. This gives farmers extra moonlight and allowing them to finish their harvests before the frosts of fall arrive
