The full moon in October is the Harvest Moon, also known as the Hunter's Moon. It will occur on Monday, October 6th and will also be the first supermoon of the year, making it larger and brighter than usual.
It's the full moon closest to the autumn equinox, traditionally used by farmers to gather crops and by hunters to prepare for winter.
