While Walking

I found this this morning and thought it was pretty interesting and thought I'd share ^_^
You've probably heard of the harvest moon, but what about these?
Moon after Yule
Snow Moon
Sap Moon
Grass Moon
Planting Moon
Honey Moon
Thunder Moon
Grain Moon
Fruit Moon (or Harvest Moon)
Hunter's Moon (or Harvest Moon)
Frosty Moon
Moon before Yule
It turns out that, just as a Harvest Moon, people decided to give names to other full moons throughout the year. Every individual lunar epithet (not meant in a derogatory manner...F*** you moon! I mean... uh...) corresponds with a month out of the year. "Moon after Yule" is the full moon of the month of January, "Snow Moon" in February, etc.
I was born in the month of the sap moon-how about you?
