my family is vaishno hindu.What does the full moon have to do with religion?
From the part of India they're from, every month when there's full moon, they invite whatever loved ones that can come over, and had a communal prayer, broke bread, and just spent quality time with each other.
When my folks came to Canada, my mom wanted to practice what she could to keep a connection to her childhood home so when my older brother and I were born, we participated in prayer and helped prep food.
Don't wanna get into the significance of the moon in my faith, but I always loved looking at the full moon and it was always cool to eat tasty food that I helped prep with my parents (that i still do today) and then have an excuse to just go look at the moon, These days its even better cuz of my dog walks.
