Does the blue moon refer to a blue colored moon?

No, a "blue moon" is the second full moon in a single calendar month. On occasion the moon will rise with a slightly blueish or even lavender cast to it, but they are even rarer than the traditional "blue moon." On an additional note, the second new moon in a single calendar month is called a "black moon" and is similarly rare.

Why do you see a blue moon?

A blue moon can refer to the second full moon in a month or the moon actually being blue. We sometimes see a full moon twice in one month due to the moon's cycle of slightly less than one month. A moon which is actually blue may result from pollutants or dust in the atmosphere, making the moon look blue.

Does a blue moon refer to a color blue moon?

No, it is the name given to a second full moon occurring in the same calendar month. (This does not happen often)Some sources indicate that the original "blue moon" was the 13th calendar-year full moon, which occurs because the calendar year has 11 more days than the 12 lunar months. Every two or three years there is a 13th full moon.
