The next time two full Moons occur in the same month (as seen from the United States) will be July 2015. The most recent blue Moon occurred in August 2012.
The next full moon will be the Full Corn Moon of July, and will peak on Wednesday, Sept. 6. To casual observers, the moon will still appear full the day prior and after the peak. This year, the Harvest Moon occurs in October, not September. The 2017 Harvest Moon will occur on Oct. 5.
