  • Jewish: Kiddush Levana, the blessing of the new Moon, is said at night while the Moon is visible, in the first half of the month.
  • Chinese, Korean and Japanese: the Mid-Autumn Festival, Chuseok and Tsukimi celebrate the full Moon of the eighth lunar month, and the Lantern Festival the year's first full Moon.
  • Buddhist: Uposatha days follow the new, full and quarter Moons, and in Sri Lanka every full Moon is a Poya holiday.
  • Photographers time the rising full Moon, and stargazers wait for moonset for a dark sky.
