When does a blue moon happen?
A blue moon is any full moon that happens to be the second full moon in a calendar month. Therefore blue moons invariably happen near the end of a month. As the lunar cycle is just about 28 days, it would be a very rare occurrence for one to happen at the end of February, but otherwise they are a natural phenomenon.
When does the moon pass from the full moon phase to the new moon phase and back to the full moon phase?

Is a blue moon possible?
Normally there are 3 full moons every quarter year, one per month. But there is about an 11 day difference between a 12 full moon, or new moon, lunar year and a 12 month Earth solar year. These days add up until it results in a month with 2 full moons. One at the beginning of the month and 1 at the end of the month. This can also result in a very rare 2 blue moon year. The calculation depends on where you live. So while N. America will have only 1 blue moon in Jan. 2010, Australia will see blue moons in both January and March. The reverse happened in 1999. A blue moon happens about every 2.5 years and a double blue moon occurs about 5 times in a century. The term "blue moon" means an extra full moon but we can have, and have had, blue colored moons. Generally this is a result of airborne particles like volcanic ash or smoke.
What is the second full moon in any month called?
ANSWER:It is sometimes mistakenly called a "blue moon." There is no "official" name for the second full moon in a month. The full moon is an astronomical phenomenon that happens at a specific moment. Specifying that moment (as, for example, "7:23 PM on November 21st" depends entirely on the usage of the Roman calendar and the time zone of the observer. So the "second full moon in the month" might not even occur for a different observer. The full moons must be approximately 28 days apart, so this means that each would necessarily fall near the beginning and end of a month, increasing the likelihood that each would occur in a different month.The history of the term "blue moon" is very interesting, and to read it just follow the related link below. In summary, a "blue moon" is the 4th full moon in an official "season". Seasons usually have only three full moons, and in folklore each moon has a name which helps farmers know when to do certain things. An extra moon throws this off, and so was named "the blue moon" leaving the other full moons to carry their proper names.The suggestion that the second full moon in a month is called a "blue moon" comes from an error made in "Sky and Telescope" magazine in 1946, and repeated several times in print and on radio until it was accepted as the truth.See the link below for the whole story.
