 BLUE MOON FACTS AND INFORMATION   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
A blue moon is the second of two full moons to occur in the same calendar month.
Blue moons occur infrequently (thus the saying ''once in a blue moon'' to denote a rare event), because the length of the calendar month in this system is close to the length of the period of the moon's phases (synodic month).
The original meaning of ''blue moon'' was the third full moon in a season when there were four full moons in that season: this had to do with church holy days related to the last or first full moon of a season (like Easter).
