2027 lunar pattern
This year resolves to 12 full moons, 13 new moons, 1 supermoon marker, 2 eclipse events. The month distribution and gap checks below help distinguish this page from a generic phase table: they show where the calendar feels dense, where phases are spaced farther apart, and when eclipse-season pages are relevant.
New moon months
Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, May, Jun, Jul, Aug, Sep, Oct, Nov, Dec
New moons are the practical anchors for lunar-month starts, religious calendars, and dark-sky planning.

Eclipses only happen near new or full moons when the Moon is close to its orbital nodes.

Frequently asked questions
- How many full moons happen in a year?
- Most years have 12 full moons, one per calendar month. Roughly every 2 to 3 years, a 13th full moon squeezes in — the second full moon in a single calendar month is called a Blue Moon. This happens because 12 synodic lunar months total 354 days, leaving 11 days a year unaccounted for; those days accumulate until an extra cycle fits.
- What is a supermoon and how often does one happen?
- A supermoon is a full moon near perigee — the closest point of the moon's elliptical orbit. Definitions vary, but a common rule (within ~10% of the closest perigee) yields 3 to 4 supermoons per year, usually in 3 to 4 consecutive months as the synodic and anomalistic cycles drift in and out of phase. Supermoons appear about 7% larger and 15% brighter than an average full moon.
- Are these times in my local timezone?
- All times on this page are UTC. Your local date may shift one day earlier or later depending on your timezone — a full moon at 23:00 UTC falls on the 'next day' for everyone east of GMT and the 'same day' for the Americas. To convert, subtract or add your offset from UTC.
- How accurate are these dates?
- We use a simplified Conway/Meeus mean-synodic algorithm, accurate to within 2-6 hours of the true new and full moon instants. For calendar dates this is essentially always exact — the rare cases where the true and approximate times straddle midnight UTC are flagged in our internal validation. For sub-minute precision, NASA/JPL's DE-440 ephemeris is the gold standard.
- What's a Blue Moon?
- Two definitions coexist. The popular 'monthly' Blue Moon is a second full moon in the same calendar month — a calendar artefact, not an astronomical phenomenon. The older 'seasonal' Blue Moon is the third full moon in a season containing four full moons. Despite the name, neither is actually blue.
