The March full moon is the second supermoon in 2020’s set of 4 consecutive supermoons. It is called the ‘Full Worm supermoon’ since it occurs during the time of the year where earthworms begin digging their way out of the ground.

This supermoon is supposed to be the biggest and brightest of the year, spanning over the course of 4 days. You’ll be able to view the Full Worm supermoon from March 7 to 10 next week but it will peak on Monday night.
The best time to view March’s supermoon will reportedly be late Monday night to early morning Tuesday. According to CBSNEWS, the supermoon will peak around 2:48 a.m. (GMT+8).
“At this time of the year, the ground begins to soften enough for earthworm casts to reappear, inviting robins and other birds to feed — a true sign of spring,” the Old Farmer’s Almanac said.
