A little late but I will backdate this post to the correct date. This is my overview on the Cold/Wolf Moon that occurs in January. I love Dorothy Morrison's work so a lot of my correspondences will have come from her books. Check here for a basic format of a Full Moon ritual.
Cold Moon
A Lunar Year
Full “Cold” Moon
The Cold Moon occurs
in January and is also named the Wolf Moon after the wolves that wander into
village in search for food due to predator food supplies being low. Another
reason is for togetherness and family, as wolves live in packs and keep the
same family for life. Families are
depended on for love, wisdom and moral support.
Spend some quality time with blood relatives and extended family, and
remember they have helped to make you who you are. Give thanks, show support and appreciation.
