Arab Weather - Every year, the Harvest Moon appears in September, adding its own special magic to the night sky. This moon, which is considered the last full moon of the summer season, carries with it a touch of warm colors that reflect the beginning of autumn, but this year, the Harvest Moon was distinguished by a rare astronomical event, as the appearance of this giant moon was accompanied by a partial eclipse that occurred at dawn on Wednesday.
The world's horizon is witnessing a series of stunning natural scenes captured by photographers' lenses. The Harvest Moon, which takes its name from an ancient tradition that refers to the time when farmers begin to harvest their crops, gains its special status thanks to its unique glow and bright shadows that illuminate the horizon at night.
