September Full Harvest Moon 2024

The September Full Moon, known as the Harvest Moon, occurs on September 17 and 18. During this time, the Moon is at the nearest point in its orbit around Earth. As summer begins to wane and the days gradually shorten, the Harvest Moon graces the night sky, offering farmers and communities a time to reap the rewards of their labor and celebrate the fruits of the earth. This is why it is popularly known as the Harvest Moon. According to NASA, when the Moon is near the horizon during moonrise, objects like trees and rocks in the foreground can provide a sense of scale. The ''Harvest Moon'' was seen through the gaps in the branches and leaves of trees in a forest in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on September 17, 2024. (Photo by Soumyabrata Roy/NurPhoto)
