Best Answer

During certain weather conditions, a halo is visible as a ring around the sun (or even the moon). This is due to atmospheric phenomena, indicating there are storms nearby. The rings are caused by refraction and reflection of light off the high cirrus clouds which contain millions of tiny ice crystals.

What does it mean when there is a ring around the moon that looks fairly close to the moon and what does it mean when there is a ring around the moon that looks to be far from the moon?

Well if the sky looks dark or bright and the ring has the same light or a little same light as the sun then the moon is covering the sun which creates a Solar Eclipse. I think that rarely happens unless there were a special gravity force or shockwave that cause the moon to move but everything will return to normal after the Eclipse ends.
