This month's full moon also referred to as the Moon Before Yule is set to be 100% full on 12/12 at 12:12 a.m., which is sure to excite numerology enthusiasts.
"In Chinese numerology, 12 represents the harmony of the yin and yang: The number 1 is a yang number, ruled by the Sun and symbolizes independence and individualism," the Farmers' Almanac says. "The number 2 is a yin number ruled by the Moon and represents symmetry and balance. Together they equal harmony. Which is why many couples choose to marry on dates with 12s in them."
Decembers full moon is also sometimes refereed to as the Cold Moon or the Long Night's Moon because of the season in which it occurs and how long it lingers in the sky. This month heralds in the cold winter season and,
according to the Farmers' Almanac,
"Decembers full Moon shines above the horizon for a longer period of time than most moons."

Is that EST? That would be 9:12 p.m. on the eleventh for me, and thus less interesting.

(4,930 posts)1. Not to quibble..but the article is inaccurate.
The current decade ends on 12/31/2020, so we have another year yet in this decade.
We start counting at 1, not 0 (unless you are doing binary)....so 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10, or 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020.

When I discovered it was the same upside-down. My mom was proud when I made that discovery, then started showing me more cool numbers.

Synchronicity, Baby, and here's hoping it's a heaping dish of serendipity to boot!
