Overview
- The full moon will occur on 24 November 2026 at 15:53 Central European Time, a time provided by the Griffith Observatory and matched to NASA data.
- This November full moon is labeled a supermoon because it will be comparatively close to Earth, using the common working cutoff of about 360,000 kilometers from Earth’s center.
- The moon for November carries traditional names such as 'Bibermond' or 'Nebelmond', names that vary by region and whose origins are often uncertain.
- Precise phase timings matter for public observation and for religions that base months on the lunar cycle, since the dates of some Jewish and Islamic observances depend on the moon.
- Scientific studies have reported links between lunar phase and sleep timing or menstrual cycles but those results are contested and appear stronger where artificial light is limited; the next full moon on 24 December 2026 at 02:28 MEZ is also forecast as a supermoon.
