The former got its name from the time of year it occurs: July, AKA the middle of summer, when thunderstorms are likely because of the humidity. This full moon assumes several monikers, but you’ve probably heard it being referred to as the Full Thunder Moon or Full Buck Moon. Next Tuesday’s Sun-Earth positioning will create an eerily beautiful Half-Blood Moon that bears a curved, red shadow over the top of the moon, with a bright white crescent shape at the bottom.Ī few minutes after we have the partial lunar eclipse, July’s Full Moon will occur. First things first, what are partial lunar eclipses? These occur when a full moon, during its orbit, partly drifts into the Earth’s umbra, which is the darkest part of the Earth’s shadow created by the sun.
