What the 2026 lunations actually mark
A lunar cycle runs about 29.5 days, so a calendar year holds twelve or thirteen of each phase. In 2026, May carries two full moons — the second is what people mean by a blue moon. New moons are read as beginnings, full moons as culmination and release.
The degree column is the part that makes any of this personal. A full moon at 24° Aquarius matters to someone with a planet near 24° Aquarius and passes almost unnoticed by everyone else. Cast your free natal chart and compare these degrees against your own placements.

How many full moons are there in 2026?
There are 13 full moons and 12 new moons in 2026. May holds two full moons, which is what a blue moon means in the calendar sense.
Which time zone are these times in?
All dates and times are US Eastern. A full moon is a single instant worldwide, so the local calendar date can differ by a day elsewhere — the moment itself does not change.
How were these dates calculated?
Each new and full moon is computed directly from the Swiss Ephemeris by locating the exact moment the Moon and Sun reach the required separation in ecliptic longitude, then localizing that instant to US Eastern Time. The dates are not copied from another calendar.
