The full Moon April 1st is called "The Pink Moon"

begin quote:

 

The full moon on April 1, 2026, is traditionally known as
the Pink Moon. While it peaks on April 1, it will appear full for several nights around that date. Despite the name, the moon will not appear pink; it is named after the early spring blooming of moss pink (creeping phlox) wildflowers.
  • Peak Illumination: April 1, 2026, at 10:12 p.m. EDT.
  • Other Names: It is sometimes called the Breaking Ice Moon, Budding Moon, or Egg Moon.
  • Significance: It is also referred to as the Paschal Moon, as it is the first full moon after the spring equinox.

Other historic names for the April full moon include the Breaking Ice Moon (Algonquin) and the Moon When the Ducks Come Back (Lakota).
