Ten Facts You Probably Didn’t Know About Full Moons!

1. The full moon occurs every 29.5 days; the duration of one complete lunar eclipse.

2. The chanes of being bitten by a dog are twice as high during a full moon according toa study at Bradford Royal Infirmary, which reviewed 1, 621 cases of dog bites between 1997 and 1999. However, a study at the University of Sydney in Australia concluded there was no identifiable relationship.

3. The only month that can occur without a full moon is February.

4. A full Moon is considered unlucky if it occurs on a Sunday but lucky on a Monday or moon day.


5. The honeymoon is named after the full moon in June. As it fell between the planting and harvesting of crops this was traditionally the best month to get married.

6. Renaissance artists traditionally depicted the moon as a crescent rather than in its full phase.

7. It is only during a full moon that the dark side of the moon - the hemisphere on the opposite side to the sun - is completely dark.


8. The female menstrual cycle has long been linked to the full phase of the moon. One theory is that prehistoric men were more likely to go hunting during their womenfolk's period because of taboos associated with blood. The most profitable time to hunt was during the full moon and the best way to convince the men to return with food was with the prospect of sex.

9. The full moon may appear round, but is actually shaped like an egg with the pointed end facing earth.

10. The moon is 10 times brighter when it is full than when it is in a quarter phase.
