First full moon after the Autumn Equinox has been known among white folks for many centuries as the "Harvest Moon" (i.e. time to stay up late gathering in your corn and so forth). The Following full moon is the "Hunter's Moon." In the days before spotlights this was a good night to creep around in the freshly harvested fields at night, taking advantage of the enhanced moonlight to kill deer.
This year, it will be the night of October 27th.
