 Dubbed the super worm moon this moon gets its name due to the time of the year when earth worms begin to rise.

 I know what your thinking…. What!

I thought you were going to say because of the worm hole it creates.  Nope you read that correctly, this unique positioning of the moon is tied to the activity of earth worms as they begin to rise for the occasion. This seems fitting since it also marks the end of winter and the beginning of spring.

Some star gazers see how powerful the moon’s gravitational pull is and liken the earth worms coming to the surface like the tides of the of the ocean. It’s amazing to see something truly symbiotic while completely out of your control. Feeling hard set tonight because the clouds are blocking your light? Turn your moon lamp on and bask in all it’s glowing glory!
