Ok, I got one for you. I have found different meanings for "Blue Moons". The most widely used and accepted is where it is the 2nd full moon in one calendar month. The second was from a book that stated a "Blue Moon" is the moon period falling between Oct. 31st and Nov. 2nd, the "time without a time" period. Then there is the view I cotton to that states it is the 2nd full moon within an Astrological sign. What are everyone else's views and why?

Blessings, Luise

Everyone ahs their own opinion on the Blue Moon, though the most common and most accpeted is: A Blue Moon occurs when the moon appears twice in the same calendar month. The moon with its 28-day cycle will appear twice within at least one month per year.
