Over the Moon: very very happy, very delighted.
it comes from a well-known 16th century nursery rhyme Hey diddle, diddle:
Hey diddle diddle, the cat and the fiddle,
The cow jumped over the moon.
The little dog laughed to see such fun
And the dish ran away with the spoon!
I also heard someone say it in "Over the Sixth Moon", but for some reason I can't find and explanation about why using "the sixth moon" here. Hope anyone have ever heard about it please explain here.
I was over the moon when I heard my grandpa's visa application has been approved!
I would be over the sixth moon if I won this week’s 30 million tattslotto.
