Overview of the upcoming full moon dates with date, time (Swiss time) and the traditional full moon name.
A complete lunar cycle lasts about 29.53 days on average. That is why there is a little under a month between two full moons, and most years have twelve, occasionally thirteen full moons. The exact moment shifts from month to month, so it is worth checking the precise date.
The astronomical full moon happens at the same instant everywhere on Earth. But because every time zone shows a different local time, the same full moon can occur in the morning in Switzerland and the previous evening in America. The times on this page are for Switzerland (CET/CEST).
Many traditions surround the full moon – advice for the garden, hair or rituals. These moon traditions are culturally widespread, but not scientifically proven. The moon-sign guidance can be found in the moon calendar.
The next full moon is on Monday, 26 October 2026 at 05:12 (CET). The moon sign is Aries.
