Blue Moon defined: A Blue moon is the second full moon of a calendar month. It occurs infrequently. Some years there are 1, 2 or no Blue Moons. So, when someone says "Once in a Blue Moon", they are talking about an infrequent or rare event.

Honey Moon: In pagan times, June weddings would be celebrated by drinking a liquor made from Honey. Hence the June moon was called the "Honey Moon". And yes, it's the origin of the term "Honeymoon".
