If you love Halloween like I do, you will like this. 

 

Halloween 2020 is going to be one for the history (and astrology!) books! Not only will we experience the annual "harvest moon" on October 1, but we'll also be treated to a particularly spooky sky on Halloween night.

According to Farmer’s Almanac, a full moon on Halloween only happens once in a blue moon—every 18 to 19 years, to be exact. For this reason, when a full moon lands on October 31, Halloween and astrology lovers near and far get pretty excited. And, when that full moon is, quite literally, a blue moon, the excitement only increases. This, of course, means that Halloween 2020 is about to be one of the best Halloweens to date.

WHAT IS A BLUE MOON?

While the name itself might make you think you’re going to see a blue-tinted moon in the sky, a blue moon is actually more about when it occurs than its actual appearance.

If you’re a fan of astrology, you likely know that full moons happen once a month, with the lunar cycle being 29 days long. Since most months are longer than 29 days, there’s a chance that two full moons could happen in the same calendar month. When this happens, it’s called a blue moon.

According to Earth Sky, there are two types of blue moons: monthly and seasonal. If there are two full moons in a month, it’s a monthly blue moon; if it’s the third of four full moons in a season, it’s a seasonal blue moon.

HALLOWEEN 2020 BLUE MOON

There’s no better way to celebrate October and all of it’s spooky, ghoulishly-good fun than by kicking off and ending the month with a full moon. Where the first of the month will witness a stunning harvest moon (the name given to the full moon closest to the autumnal equinox on September 22), the 31st will see its first Halloween blue moon since 2001. Needless to say, you won’t want to miss it. After all, the next time you can expect a full moon on Halloween is in 2039!

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
