If you are interested in lunar phases for the rest of September --

September 18 – Moon at perigee (its closest point to the Earth). Because the Moon's perigee comes so close to the New Moon, expect extremely high tides.

September 22 – First Quarter Moon, 3:41 p.m. One-half of the Moon appears illuminated by direct sunlight while the illuminated part is increasing.

September 22 – Autumn Equinox, 10:49 a.m. The Sun crosses the Equator.

September 29 – Full Harvest Moon, 11:19 p.m. The visible Moon is fully illuminated by direct sunlight. Though the Moon is only technically in this phase for a few seconds, it is considered "full" for the entire day of the event, and appears full for three days.
