March’s full moon can be called by many names: Crow Moon, Worm Moon, Crust Moon and Sap Moon are all drawn from Indigenous traditions, while Europeans historically called this the Lenten Moon. A Super moon, is a term that refers to a full or new moon that is much closer to the Earth than it is during the rest of the year. The term was coined by astrologer Richard Nolle in 1979. A Super moon is approximately 14 per cent bigger and 30 per cent brighter than a “micro moon” -- a full moon that is at the point in its orbit when it is farthest away from the Earth. This month super moon is part of a series of back-to-back super moons. April’s full moon is set to be slightly closer to the Earth than March’s, by about 0.1 per cent.Next month’s super moon will show its face on April 7. May is predicted to also have a super moon. The last day of October, the 31th, we'll be able to admire a Blue moon. It is called this way because it'll be the 2nd of 2 full moons in a single calendar month. Enough now for astronomy. I'd like to see your coins featuring the "star" of the day. Please show me your moons! Antoninus PiusMoon in Cancer[ATTACH=full]1081625[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
