Full moons are a magical time in which our deepest needs are illuminated, and the energy of nature turns in our favor, pushing us to find resolution and allowing us to manifest our deepest desires. And the full wolf moon is going to be one of the most important moons of the year.
Each full moon is given a name or set of names, based on ancient Native American wisdom and ancient folklore. On January 17, we will experience the full Wolf moon, which is named as such because, during January, the sound of a wolf’s howl is quite prominent late into the night. Since many believe that wolves howl at the moon, the January moon was given the name the full Wolf moon.
The full Wolf moon represents transformation, rumination, self-reflection, and new beginnings. And what better time to transform and obtain a fresh start than January? Adding to this energy is the fact that this full moon is going to be under the energy of Cancer. Cancer has a nurturing type of energy and is also a highly emotionally driven sign. Due to this, we are going to be diving deep into an emotional place, while being given the ability to swim up to shore renewed, rejuvenated, and transformed.
