Discussion
Which of the following statements are not correct in respect of Hunter Moon ?
(i) It is also called as 'December's Full Moon'
(ii) It is also called as 'Drying Rice Moon'
(iii) It is also called as 'Sanguine Moon'
(iv) It is also called as 'Pagan Black Moon'
Answer: B
Statements (i) and (iv) are not correct, so the answer is (i) and (iv).
The Hunter's Moon is the first full moon after the Harvest Moon, so it usually falls in October, not December, which makes statement (i) wrong. 'Pagan Black Moon' is not one of its names, so statement (iv) is wrong too.
Statements (ii) and (iii) are correct: among the traditional names given to October's full moon are the 'Drying Rice Moon' and the 'Sanguine' or 'Blood' Moon. So any option that counts (ii) or (iii) as incorrect is wrong.
