About Harvest moon,
QuoteA Harvest Moon's proximity to the September equinox means that the rise times for the near-to-full phases of the Moon are nearly the same on the days before and after. So, the Harvest Moon is so-called because the difference in rise times from one evening to the next after this date is the smallest for the year.
Why is the harvest moon special?
Extra daylight: The harvest moon rises shortly after sunset for several nights in a row, giving farmers extra daylight to work.
Close to the autumnal equinox: The harvest moon is the full moon closest to the autumnal equinox, which is when the moon's orbit is at its minimum relative to Earth's horizon.
Cultural phenomenon: The harvest moon is both an astronomical event and a cultural phenomenon.

In the Southern Hemisphere, the harvest moon occurs in March or April.
The September full moon is sometimes called the corn moon or barley moon.
