The Harvest Moon
Did you see the moon last night? It was large, clear, and bright -- much like the clear waters of the Pacific Ocean.

Why is it called the "harvest moon"? Actually the "harvest moon" is the first full moon that symbolizes the beginning of the fall season. The full moon falls "closest to the autumnal equinox", which is September 22. This date in the calendar is the beginning of fall on the northern hemisphere.
