Was there a blue moon in 1984?
There was not a blue moon in 1984 because each month had one full moon and each season had three full moons.
There are two definitions of blue moons. The most common, and the one you likely know, is when two full moons occur in the same month. The second full moon is typically called a blue moon.
The second definition of a blue moon relates to having an extra full moon during a season. When a season has four full moons, the third full moon of the season is also called a blue moon or a seasonal blue moon to help distinguish between the other definition.

Depending on the year, the Harvest Moon may either be part of the Summer or Autumn season. In 1984 it was part of Summer.
