The first supermoon of the year - October’s full harvest moon

The full moon in October, known as the Hunter's Moon, is also this year's Harvest Moon and the first supermoon of the year. It is appearing through the gaps in the branches and leaves of the trees in a forest that is changing color and brightening over time after rising in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on October 06, 2025. The moniker harvest moon indicates that the full moon is closest to the autumnal equinox. Historically, its bright light is aiding farmers in completing their harvests, as noted by The Old Farmer’s Almanac
