Analogous to a sundog or parhelion, the paraselene is produced by moonlight shining through thin, hexagonal-shaped ice crystals in high cirrus clouds.

类的形成一样，在高空卷云中，月通过稀薄、具有六边形状的冰晶产生了幻月。

During this alignment, each crystal can act like a miniature lens, refracting sunlight into our view and creating phenomena like parhelia, the technical term for sundogs.

在这个平面内，每一个冰晶就像一个小透镜一样，将折射入我们的视野，造成幻现象，其术语就是幻。
