Pink Moon April - Micro Moon - 2026
The 2026 Pink Moon, April's full moon and the first full moon of spring, appears as a ''micro moon'' because it coincides with the moon's farthest point from Earth (apogee), making it look slightly smaller and dimmer than a typical full moon. Other names include Breaking Ice Moon, Budding Moon, Awakening Moon, Egg Moon, and Paschal Moon. It is named after Phlox subulata, a pink spring wildflower, and symbolizes renewal and growth. The Pink Moon is seen rising through tree branches, moringa oleifera fruits, and a DTH (Direct-to-Home) connection dish antenna in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on April 2, 2026.
