Snow Moon-Wolf Moon Febuary 7th

February Since the heaviest snow usually falls during this month, native tribes of the north and east most often called February’s full Moon the Full Snow Moon. Some tribes also referred to this Moon as the Full Hunger Moon, since harsh weather conditions in their areas made hunting very difficult.

The Full Moon climbs at Sunset hour,
And Waning half the midnight knows.”
