Question
When does a "blue moon" occur in the lunar
calendar?Solution
Most of us know Blue Moons as the second full moon of a single calendar month. These happen a lot, too. The "blue moon" reference is applied to the third full moon in a season with four full moons, thus correcting the timing of the last month of a season that would have otherwise been expected too early. This happens every two to three years (seven times in the Metonic cycle of 19 years).
