Living by the Lunar Rhythm

For centuries, before people had access to a free printable moon calendar for their walls, the full moon was the timekeeper of the ancients. In 2026, we observe a cycle rich with folklore, including three massive Supermoons and a rare seasonal Blue Moon in May.

❄️ The Deep Winter Moons

The year begins with intensity. The air is cold, the nights are long, and survival is the theme.

Wolf Moon

Jan 3: Wolf Moon (Supermoon)

We kick off 2026 with a Supermoon. It is named for the hungry wolves heard howling outside villages amid the deep snows of midwinter.
Snow Moon

Feb 1: Snow Moon

Historically the snowiest month in North America. Some tribes also referred to this as the “Hunger Moon” due to difficult hunting conditions.
Worm Moon

Mar 3: Worm Moon

As the ground softens, earthworms appear, inviting the return of robins. It is the first true sign that winter is losing its grip.

🌸 The Season of Growth

Spring 2026 is astronomically special, featuring four full moons instead of the usual three.

Pink Moon

Apr 2: Pink Moon

Named not for its color, but for the “moss pink” wild ground phlox, one of the earliest widespread flowers of spring.
Flower Moon

May 1: Flower Moon

Flowers are in full bloom across the Northern Hemisphere. This moon lights the path for late planting.
Blue Moon

May 31: Blue Moon

A calendar oddity! Because the lunar cycle is 29.5 days, May gets a second full moon. This rare event won’t happen again for years.

β˜€οΈ The High Summer Moons

Short nights and long days. These moons guided hunting and fishing tribes during the season of plenty.

Buck Moon

Jun 29: Buck Moon

By late June, the antlers of male deer (bucks) are in full-growth mode, pushing through their forehead velvet.
Sturgeon Moon

Jul 29: Sturgeon Moon

The giant sturgeon of the Great Lakes and Lake Champlain were most readily caught during this part of the summer.
Corn Moon

Aug 27: Corn Moon

Also known as the Green Corn Moon, this signals that the crops are growing tall and the time for gathering is approaching.

πŸ‚ The Harvest & Hunt

We end the year with functionality. These moons provided light for workers gathering food for the winter ahead.

Harvest Moon

Sep 26: Harvest Moon

The most famous moon of all. It rises shortly after sunset for several days in a row, giving farmers extra light to bring in crops.
Hunter's Moon

Oct 25: Hunter’s Moon

With the leaves falling and the deer fattened, it is time to hunt. Since the fields have been reaped, hunters can easily see prey.
Beaver Moon

Nov 24: Beaver Moon (Supermoon)

This is the time to set beaver traps before the swamps freeze, ensuring a supply of warm winter furs.
Cold Moon

Dec 23: Cold Moon (Supermoon)

We end 2026 as we began: with a massive Supermoon illuminating the longest, darkest nights of the year.

When are the Supermoons in 2026?

The year 2026 features three distinct Supermoons, occurring when the moon is closest to Earth (perigee). They are the Wolf Moon (Jan 3), the Beaver Moon (Nov 24), and the Cold Moon (Dec 23). These full moons will appear approximately 7% larger and 15% brighter than average.

Is there a Blue Moon in 2026?

Yes. A seasonal Blue Moon occurs on May 31, 2026. Since the lunar cycle (29.5 days) is shorter than the calendar month, May will witness two full moons: the Flower Moon on May 1st and the Blue Moon on May 31st.

What time zone is this calendar based on?

The phases listed on this printable chart are calculated for UTC (Coordinated Universal Time). However, because full moons occur at a specific global moment, the dates are generally accurate for North America and Europe, though the exact “peak” minute may shift slightly depending on your local time zone.
