2027 at a glance
The whole year on one page
A printable sheet in the same botanical frame: the Moon for every day of 2027 in twelve rows, and the new, first quarter, full and last quarter times for each month, in the US time zone you pick. A4 or US Letter, with an ink-saving plain version.
How the times are worked out
Every moment on this page is calculated, not copied: the phase times come from the lunar theory in Jean Meeus's Astronomical Algorithms, corrected for the difference between atomic time and Earth's rotation. Checked against the US Naval Observatory's published phases for 2025 to 2030, all 297 times match to the minute or differ by one.
The sign is worked out through the Sun: a new moon happens when the Moon and Sun share a longitude, a full moon when they stand 180° apart, so the Moon's position at that minute is the Sun's plus 0°, 90°, 180° or 270°. Signs are tropical, as in Western astrology. Eastern Time follows daylight saving, which is why spring and summer times read EDT and the rest EST.
A calendar gives the same sky to everyone. Where these new and full moons land in your own birth chart is the personal part, and that is what a reading built from your birth date looks at. See a reading built from your birth moon →

When is the first full moon of 2027?
The first full moon of 2027 is the Wolf Moon on Friday, January 22, 2027, at 7:17 AM EST (12:17 UTC), with the Moon in Leo.
How many full moons are there in 2027?
Twelve, from January 22 to December 13. A lunar cycle lasts about 29.5 days, so a calendar year fits twelve full moons with roughly eleven days to spare.
Is there a blue moon in 2027?
Not in the calendar-month sense: no month of 2027 has two full moons (counting dates in Eastern Time). By the older seasonal rule (the third of four full moons between an equinox and a solstice), the Flower Moon on Thursday, May 20 counts as a Blue Moon.
When is the Harvest Moon in 2027?
On Wednesday, September 15, 2027, at 7:03 PM EDT. It is the full moon nearest the September equinox (September 23 this year, Eastern Time).
Which months of 2027 have two new moons?
August (the second on Tuesday, August 31). A second new moon in one calendar month is often called a Black Moon.
