Is this the last full moon of summer? No, because it’s not completely full. There won’t be a full moon until 24^th September – and then it will no longer be summer. That will be the first full moon in autumn. Why? When does autumn start? Meteorological autumn started on the first day of September. The three autumn months are September, October and November. Astrological autumn starts tomorrow, from the equinox. (The sun is above the Equator.) It lasts till the winter solstice. After tomorrow the days will be shorter than the nights. Winter is coming! If tomorrow is the first day of autumn – it is the last day of Virgo as well.
