It is the 20th of the 25 lunations dated for 2030, and the cycle it belongs to is set out in what a lunation is.

Why it is called the Hunter's Moon
The Hunter's Moon is the traditional North American and European name for the full Moon of October, and in 2030 it falls on October 11, 2030 at 18°10' Aries. Those names follow the calendar month rather than the zodiac, which is why the 2030 one lands in Aries at 18°10' Aries while other years put it elsewhere.
