When the sun and moon are aligned, there are exceptionally strong gravitational forces, causing very high and very low tides which are called spring tides, though they have nothing to do with the season. Spring tides occur at new moon and full moon, while neap tides occur during quarter phases of the moon.

The moon is full during a lunar eclipse, as it must be opposite to the sun. Solar eclipses happen at new moon, as the moon must pass between the sun and the earth.
