Get ready for a stunning sky event this weekend! September’s Full Corn Moon will rise over North America on September 7, 2025. Stargazers are in for a treat as this lunar event happens just hours after a spectacular total lunar eclipse graces the skies of India, China, Australia, and the Pacific.
What Makes the Corn Moon Special?
The Full Corn Moon gets its name from Native American traditions, marking the time to harvest corn. This year, the moon’s appearance is even more special because it follows a total lunar eclipse seen across much of Asia and the Pacific. While North America misses out on the eclipse, the glowing full moon will still put on a mesmerizing show.
How to Watch the Full Corn Moon
For the best view, head outside just after sunset on September 7th. The moon will appear extra bright and large as it rises on the horizon. Don’t forget your camera and share your moon photos with friends and family. This is a perfect opportunity to enjoy nature’s beauty and marvel at our celestial neighbor.
