May will have two full moons in it. On May 1st will be the Flower Moon named for obvious reasons. Then on the 31st will be the Blue Moon. There is a song named after this one. The name of blue moon may come from the Middle English word "bewele" meaning betrayed because this moon is betraying the usual 12 moons with 13 in one year.
