 Folklore of Blue Moon, Philip Hiscock, IPS Planetarian
By "blue cheese" the ancient reference was to a cheese that had become blue with mold, metaphorically transferred, probably, to the comparatively rare appearance of the moon on unusually clear nights when the entire surface of the moon is visible although no more than a thin edge is illuminated.
Blue Moon is different from the monthly or seasonal moon names as it isn't restricted to a time of year.
The earliest references to a blue moon are in a phrase remarkably like early references to the moon's "green cheese." Both phrases were used as examples of obvious absurdities about which there could be no argument.
