This evening First of May it will be special: the sky will in fact give us the spectacle of Flower Moonthe full moon of the spring month par excellence. Don’t miss it!
How and when to observe the Flower Moon 2026
As we read on the specialized portal Moongiantthe month of May will be special for the Moon: in fact we will have 5 lunar phases with two full moons. On May 1st we will admire the first, the splendid one Flower Moon. Our satellite will technically be in the flood phase at 7.23pm Italian time, but – weather permitting – it will be beautiful all night (in the map the sky of May 1, 2026 at approximately 9.30 pm).
Why Moon of Flowers
The full moon in May is called Flower Moon in the American tradition due to the “climate change” usually visible in May. This has always been remembered as the full moon of the spring month par excellence (which however – let us never forget – is often also characterized by weather instability, sometimes with frequent and intense rains, even if brief).
But this is not the only name of this moon – the tribe Anishnaabe he called her Moon in bloomwhile for the people Apache And Lakota it was there Green Leaf Moonwhile for the tribe Mohawks there Big Leaf Moon.
Enjoy your vision and Happy First May!
