Since the Earth rotates all the way around every 24 hours, the moon is over both
the eastern and western hemispheres for roughly 1/2 of every day. It's also over
both the northern and southern hemispheres for roughly 1/2 of every four weeks.
You could be a little more specific. (date,time,nothern hemisphere,southern hemisphere.....?)
The harvest moon is the full moon closest to the autumnal equinox, so in 2013 in the northern hemisphere it was the full moon that peaked on 19 September at 11:13 AM UTC.
