Rowan & Pine: A Feminist Folklore & Mythology PodcastShow Notes
It has finally arrived. The formal beginning of the lighter half of the year, Bealtaine 2026, heralded the rise of the Flower moon, This name was originally given by the Algonquin people to the full moon in May thanks to the abundance of blooming flowers. Other names include the hare moon, the corn planting moon, and the milk moon. But this month has another, more significant moon to watch out for - the Blue moon. A Blue Moon is different from the monthly or seasonal moon names like the flower moon - it isn't restricted to a time of year. It is a movable feast. A full lunar cycle is a little over 28 days long. However, a calendar year is 365 days, which means that during some years, you may end up with thirteen full moons instead of twelve, depending on where in the month the lunar cycle falls. This is the Blue Moon.
