Tonight's full moon is the Harvest Moon, which is also a supermoon and a hunter's moon. This means it is the closest full moon to the Earth in its orbit, appearing bigger and brighter. The full moon reached its peak illumination early this morning around 03:47 UTC, and will appear especially large and bright in the night sky tonight. This full moon is significant as it occurs near the autumnal equinox and historically helped farmers finish gathering crops after sunset with its bright light. It is currently in the fire sign of Aries astrologically.
