The full moon and eclipses
As a matter of fact, a lunar eclipse can only happen at full moon, because that’s the only time the moon can be directly opposite the sun in Earth’s sky. However, the full moon in October barely passes through the north of the Earth’s dark shadow (umbra), and therefore only a shallow partial lunar eclipse in the Earth’s dark shadow can take place.
However, usually there is no eclipse at full moon. For example, in 2023, we have 13 full moons but only two lunar eclipses and neither one of them is a total lunar eclipse.
