Worm Moon

Tonight's full Moon has a special name

WORM MOON


According to folklore, this week's full Moon has a special name--the Worm Moon. It heralds the coming of northern spring and the first stirring of earthworms in thawing garden soils. Keith Breazeal photographed the "worm moonrise" last night near Lake Tahoe, California.

"What a view it was as it rose against the tree line just after sunset,"

Rising of the Worm Moon over the Castle of Veszprem with the S. Michael Cathedral. There were some clouds but they didn't disturbed the view.


The skies cleared after yesterday's snow up on Grand Mesa, making it a real treat to see March's bright full Worm Moon rise behind the 10,000ft elevation of this flat-top mountain in western Colorado.
