yes
If you've ever heard of the expression "once in a blue moon", you would probably refer to it as being "rare" or "unusual", so if you were born on a blue moon (which I have just found out I was) it means you're pretty unique!
1 Half of the moon is blue
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.
What this saying means is that a blue moon rarely happens, so whatever you're talking about is rare.
The expression "once in a blue moon" originates from the occurrence of a rare event. A blue moon refers to the second full moon in a calendar month, which happens infrequently, approximately every two to three years. Thus, the phrase signifies something that happens very rarely.
have you ever seen a blue moon? thats why
you can say "once in a blue moon" to mean that it is rare e.g she comes to my place once in a blue moon to mean that she rarely come to my place or never comes to my place. hope this helps!!!
Yes.
both are equally rare, you should know that
That is because you are not always on-line or you come on-line once in a blue moon.
The term "blue moon" is used when something very rare happens, the most common usage of this term is "Once in a blue moon".
Its fairly rare, but sometimes a second new moon may appear in a month, called a 'blue moon'.

In Mt. Moon
The moon goes through the phases every 28 days. If a full moon occurs twice during a month, the second full moon is a blue moon...pretty rare.
It appears as a full moon twice in one calendar month...rare
