Rare Full Moon on Friday the 13th Happening this Week

Share

It only happens once ever couple of decades, but this Friday, September 13th, will see a full moon.

The Farmers’ Almanac says the last time this happened was Oct. 13, 2000. The next won’t happen again until Aug. 13, 2049. The occurrence of a full moon on a Friday the 13th happens on average every 20 years, according to the Almanac.

This is also the Harvest Moon, which is the full moon closest to the autumnal equinox.
