Event Description
January Full Moon – 3rd of 3 supermoons
A perigee is when the moon ‘s orbit is closest to the earth and a supermoon is when the full or new moon coincide (or almost coincide) with the perigee. What does that mean? The moon looks exceptionally big because it is close!
Full moons have many names derived from various cultures reflecting what was happening in the natural world.
The January full moon is most often known as the Wolf Moon because it is the month hungry wolves howl in the night. It is also known as the Stay Home, or Quiet, Moon as cold temps set in and we want to snuggle in and stay home.
