Spring Equinox & super moon

For the first time in nineteen years the final super moon of the year also falls on Spring Equinox. Sky gazers will be treated to this vernal event dubbed, Super Worm Moon. 

This ancient name derives from Native American tradition. Also called the Sap Moon because it is the time to tap the maples for their sap.

The Old Farmer’s Almanac reports that the full moon in March is always known as the worm moon because it marks the time of year when earthworms begin to come out in the soil.
