The Full Moon
Everyone must have seen the Full Moon. It rises at sunset, unlike any other phase of the Moon, and sets at sunrise. Thus, it is above the horizon all night long. A lot of strange things have been attributed to the Full Moon,
but none of these claims can stand up to the burden of scientific proof. If you don't believe that, find out what the
Committee for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal has to say.
Many cultures have given the full moon of each month a distintive name. The Algonquins named the moons for various natural occurences. The Chinese named the Moons in their own special way.
Here is a list of the Dates of the Full Moon for the next few years from the Old Farmer's Almanac and an African safari company.
