Even though the lyrics say that the blue moon turns to gold* in reality the orange moon was yesterday, the blue moon is today.

Thanks to my reader pal who found for me the article in Sky & Telescope on the blue moon phenomenon –the modern definition of which is that two full moons appear in the same calendar month. It's likely that everyone but me remembered that the second of those is called the “blue moon.” [The lunar cycle is 29.5 days and so the event is rare; over the next twenty years, there will be a blue moon only 17 times. One such time is today.]

* Blue Moon,
You saw me standing alone…
I heard somebody whisper please adore me
And when I looked to the Moon it turned to gold..
