Why the name Beaver Moon?
November’s full moon is known by many names, but it’s known as the Beaver Moon since it’s a time when beavers are seen getting ready for winter, according to Farmers’ Almanac. This is based on Native American naming traditions, which often reflect the changing landscapes and patterns of nature.
When is the next supermoon?
The next supermoon won’t occur until October 2025, so be sure to catch this rare celestial show until then. If you’re looking for more dazzling things to look at — check out where to catch Holiday lights around Los Angeles.
