The moon was full at 10:29 p.m. during last night's eclipse. Tonight, Luna will rise again, nearly full, at 6:39 p.m. This is the third full moon since the winter solstice, which makes it the Lenten Moon, the Sap Moon, the Worm Moon or the Crow Moon, depending on your cultural preferences. They all seem self-explanatory. It's Lent, and one presumes that the sap is rising and the earthworms are stirring somewhere. And the crows' cawing proclaims the end of winter, despite the snow.
