Definition: once in a blue moon
blue moon
\blue moon"\
The second full moon occurring in the same month; -- derived
from the expression
once in a blue moon; as, we had a blue
moon on January 31, 1999, and another in March.
[PJC]
once in a blue moon very rarely; -- from the observation
that the moon rarely has a bluish tint.
Note: In 1980, the phrase
blue moon was applied to the
second full moon of any month, because this phenomenon
is unusual. This new meaning for the old phrase blue
moon has become widely accepted.
