This picture is called Blue Moon. Blue moons are considered to be rare - and beautiful - events. However, there is some disagreement over the actual definition of a blue moon. The most common idea is that whenever there is a second full moon in a single month, it is called a blue moon. That next happens in August 2012.
To read about other definitions of a blue moon, look at my post on the blue moon that took place last New Year's Eve.
My Pagan Eye posts show photos that I find interesting - seasonal images, pagan sites, events, or just pretty pictures.
If you want to send me a photo for a Pagan Eye post, please email it to badwitch1234@gmail.com Let me know what the photo shows and whether you want your name mentioned or not. For copyright reasons, the photo must be one you have taken yourself.
