Harvest Moon Pictures 2014: See Stunning Photos of the Harvest Moon

The full moon is seen rising in the sky above the domes of the Smolny Cathedral in St. Petersburg, Russia, Monday, Sept. 8, 2014. Monday night's full moon, also known as a Harvest Moon, will be the third and final "supermoon" of 2014. The phenomenon, which scientists call a "perigee moon," occurs when the moon is near the horizon and appears larger and brighter than other full moons.

The Harvest Moon is rising on Monday night, and has already risen in some places around the world.

This full moon is dubbed the Harvest Moon because it’s the full moon that’s nearest to the autumnal equinox.

It’s also the Full Corn Moon because it traditionally corresponds with the time of harvesting corn, according to the Farmer’s Almanac.

“It is also called the Barley Moon, because it is the time to harvest and thresh the ripened barley,” it added.
