September's full moon, known as the Harvest Moon, offers farmers extended evening light. This occurs because its moonrise timing shifts only slightly each night. The moon appears larger and orange due to atmospheric effects and optical illusion. In 2026, this special full moon peaks on September 26. Various cultures also assign unique names to this significant lunar event.
