On January 17th 2022, we will welcome our first Full Moon of the year also known as Wolf Moon. The Wolf Moon name was derived from Native American tribes. It is said that the wolves howled more at this January full moon than any other through out the year. Initially, the Native Americans believed that the howling was due to hunger during the winter. We now know that wolves howl for different reasons such as defining, territory, locating pack members, building social bonds, and even coordinate hunting.
The Wolf Moon also symbolizes the middle of the cold season. It is also believed that a bright first moon suggests rain and a bountiful harvest. A red-tinted moon hints at a dry year. If you see a halo around the full moon, it suggests wet or stormy weather. The full moon will rise around 4:45 p.m. Eastern and reach peak illumination at around 6:50 p.m. Eastern. Other than being the highest point in the lunar cycle, full moons signify a time to release that no longer serves you and manifest your heart’s wishes and goals.
There is the spiritual meaning of the full moon and also what the Wolf Moon means for each Zodiac Sign. Check out your sign below:
