The second full moon in the same month is called a Blue Moon.

Once in a Blue Moon,... a rare event is upon us.

On Saturday night, Democrats yearning for a blue wave on election day may choose to look to the skies for an omen: a blue moon.

Blue moons, typically defined as the second full moon in one month, are rare, arriving every two to three years. According to Earthsky.org, the last was on 31 March 2018.

Confusingly, an older definition of blue moon refers to the third of four full moons in a season which, because seasons usually last three months, is one more full moon than expected. The next such seasonal blue moon will come on 22 August 2021.

JFK: We choose to go the moon in this decade ... not because they are easy, but because they are hard.
Fat Donny: I don't take responsibility at all.

Fly me to the moon!:
