∙ 13y agoThere is no astronomical relationship between the phases of the Moon and the Earth's orbit around the Sun. So we would expect to find a full moon to occur on the equinox about once every 15 years or so.

∙ 13y agoOn average, the Moon will be full on Halloween one year out of every 28. If we expand the criteria to be "ALMOST full", meaning 2 days before to 2 days after, then an almost-full Moon will happen at Halloween about one year in six.
For example, last year (2009) the Moon was full on November 2, so it was "almost full" on Halloween. In 2012, the Moon will be full on October 29, 2 days before Halloween. In 1974 the Moon was full on October 31, and again in 2020 the Moon will be full on Halloween.

∙ 12y agoActually it's not common for a full moon to appear on Halloween. Due to the speed of the Moons orbit and the fact that we sometimes have an extra day (leap year).

∙ 13y agoThere is a full moon every 29 days, and one winter solstice per year. So, about once every 29 years. So 2010 isn't anything really special, just because the northern hemisphere's winter solstice happens to be on a full moon.
It _IS_ sort of unusual that the northern hemisphere's winter solstice in 2010 just happens to be within 15 hours of a total lunar eclipse. There will be a total lunar eclipse ending at 08:53 GMT on December 21, 2010, and the winter solstice will occur at 23:38 GMT on December 21, 2010. But it's just a coincidence, without any significant meaning.
