That's really cool! I've heard a few of those terms before and now I know what they actually refer to!
It's also nice to know this bit of trivia, since this is an expression used commonly:
The Blue Moon. The second full Moon occurring within a calendar month is usually bestowed this title.
Although the name suggests that to have two Full Moons in a single month is a rather rare occurrence (happening "just once in a . . . "), it actually occurs once about every three years on average.
Thanks Mon-Jas.
I'll have to have a "Blue Moon" party!!
