September 17 Supermoon and Partial Lunar Eclipse to Light Up the Sky

The Harvest Moon will coincide with a penumbral eclipse, offering a unique celestial event visible across multiple continents.

  • The full moon, known as the Harvest Moon, will reach its peak illumination on September 17 at 7:34 p.m. PT.
  • A penumbral eclipse will occur, with the moon partially entering Earth's shadow, making it appear less bright.
  • This event will be visible in the Americas, parts of Antarctica, the western Indian Ocean, the Middle East, Africa, Europe, the Atlantic Ocean, and some of Eastern Polynesia.
  • Astrologers note that the full moon in Pisces, coinciding with the eclipse, could have significant emotional and spiritual impacts.
  • Despite the hype, the supermoon will not appear dramatically larger or brighter, but the partial eclipse will add a unique element to the viewing experience.
