It’s a large waxing gibbous moon that lights up the evening sky on the night of July 19. The moon is moving toward full phase, to usher in the year’s third and final “super” full moon – another supermoon – on July 22, 2013.

Another supermoon coming up on July 22

The July 2013 full moon will be the second full moon after the June solstice. There are usually three full moons in between a solstice and an equinox, or vice versa. Seven times in 19 years, however, four full moons fall in a single season. In that case, the third of a season’s four full moons is sometimes called a Blue Moon. The next Blue Moon by this definition will happen next month, on August 21, 2013

Supermoon: How will it affect us?

Does the full moon affect humanity, in particularly a Supermoon? Personally, I notice an increase in insomnia, and also changes in the behavior of animals. Once we had a pig butchered, and observed a most pecular site in that the pig refused to die. Sorry that's not something most people want to talk about, but the gentleman who performed the job; who had 30 years experience in the field, stated that he noticed this ocurrance all the time during full moons. I would attribute it to an increase in energies and the change in magnetic pull on the earth. This supermoon, in particularly, is accompanied by summer solstice energies and solar flares. So things could get fun!

A lack of sleep most certainly affects humans as police have reported a rise in crime rates. Scientifically speaking, I can find little evidence to support anonmalies, but that could be because few studies have been done. Subjectively speaking...well you be the judge of that!
