Please enjoy this inelegantly named moon
Worm moon. Also known as the Crow Moon, Crust Moon, Sap Moon, Sugar Moon or Lenten Moon. But the article says Worm Moon is the most popular in Britain.
Most people assume it’s due to earthworms in Spring, but the article says some bullshit about native Americans. The Brits love them some red Indians. They also still use the expression “red Indians” which makes me wince a little. I feel sure that would get you screamed at by a bluehair in the States.
It’s technically not full until tomorrow night, but more visible here tonight.
I can attest. I came in and looked up the moon because I went out to put the chickens away, and there it was in all its wormy glory.
