Full Moon August 15, 2019
Names for the August Full Moon include Sturgeon Moon, Harvest Moon, Grain Moon, Green Corn Moon, Fruit Moon and Barley Moon.
The Full Moon in August is hope for a plentiful harvest and sometimes called the Sturgeon Moon because of the great number of enormous sturgeon that were once found in the lakes and rivers in North America. Overfishing, damage to breeding grounds, and pollution all contributed to making the lake sturgeon one of the rarest fish today.
