January Amid the cold and deep snows of midwinter,
the wolf packs howled hungrily outside Indian villages.
Thus, the name for January’s full Moon. Sometimes it
was also referred to as the Old Moon, or the Moon After Yule
Some called it the Full Snow Moon, but most tribes applied
that name to the next Moon.
