That Old Mysterious, Magical Moon

That Old Mysterious, Magical Moon

The sturgeon or green corn moon is here! This is a beautiful moon, worth watching. The names for full moons occurring at different times through the year are interesting. Early day people named them for good reasons, long ago when we lived closer to nature.
