Harvest Moon. Nearest full 

 moon to the autumnal equinox, 

 Sept. 23. Owing to the position of 

 the moon's path with respect to the 

 horizon, it rises nearly at the same 

 time on successive evenings. The 

 succession of moonlight evenings 

 occurring at this time of the year is 

 taken advantage of by farmers to 

 gather their crops, and hence the 

 name. See Moon.
