🌕 Full Sturgeon Moon – August 9, 2025
On the night of August 9, skywatchers around the world will witness the Full Sturgeon Moon rising in its full brilliance.
This unique name dates back to the traditions of Native American tribes, who noticed that sturgeon fish were most easily caught during this time of year in the Great Lakes and other large water bodies.
The Sturgeon Moon is not just a celestial event—it’s a seasonal marker that speaks to the deep connection between the rhythms of the sky and the cycles of life on Earth.
As it rises above tranquil lakes and through silhouettes of summer trees, its warm reddish hue is a gentle reminder of summer’s peak and the quiet transition toward autumn.
✨ Best viewed after sunset, far from city lights.
