Rare lunar occurrence this Friday

WISH-TV | wishtv.com

If you’re a superstitious person, this Friday might just be a good day (or specifically, night) to stay inside.

This Friday will mark the 13th day of the month, and will also produce a full moon. It’s the first time since 2000 that a full moon and a Friday the 13th fall on the same day.

It won’t happen again until August 13, 2049.

This full moon is also known as the “Harvest Moon” because it is the last full moon before the Autumnal Equinox – the start of fall – on Sept. 23.
