October -Hunter's Moon
(also known as Blood Moon or Sanguine Moon)
In times past, autumn moons were said to help hunters tracking their prey. They could continue to track their prey by moonlight even when the sun had gone down.
Traditionally, it was a feast day in parts of western Europe and among some Native American tribes, called simply the Feast of the Hunter's Moon, though the celebration had largely died out by the 1700s.
