Once in a Blue Moon
Moon folklore or math?
First, a blue moon has nothing to do with the coloring of the moon.
It’s an occurrence every 2-3 years where the sun calendar and moon calender balance out their differing days.
Skipping the mathematics. The next blue moon is on August 19, 2024.
Where did “once in a blue moon” come from? Good question. Many claims going back to the 15th century. It’s hard to give a definitive recording of the origin. I suppose it’s a mystery!
Until Tomorrow! Smile On!
