Twice in a single month, the full moon rises — a coincidence of cosmic rhythm and human timekeeping that we have come to call a Blue Moon. In May 2026, the lunar cycle's 29.5-day pace slips ahead of our calendar just enough to grant the month two full moons, the second of which carries this rare designation. The moon will not appear blue, nor will it behave differently than any other — yet its occurrence reminds us that even familiar celestial bodies can, by the simple arithmetic of calendars, become uncommon guests.
