I heard that August 2024 will have a special moon called the blue moon. I'm wondering why it's called that way. Is it because the moon will actually turn blue or is there another reason behind this name?

The misconception often associates a blue moon with the second full moon in a single calendar month.

A seasonal blue moon appears when there are four full moons in a single astronomical season.
