January Full Moon Name

The first full moon of the year is known in many cultures as the wolf full moon, which is appropriate given the deep ancient connections between wolves and the January full moon. For example, the Gaelic word for January, Înàirà, comes from wolf faol-chù, although there have been no wolves in Scotland for centuries.

Why are wolves so strongly associated with January and the full moon?

The most obvious answer is that wolves are much louder and more noticeable in January, when the breeding season begins. Wolves begin to howl more frequently and aggressively to establish their territory, threatening to keep neighbors and enemies away from their nesting areas.

A small pack of wolves may even try to look like a larger pack by howling together. While a single wolf can howl in one breath, the entire pack can howl together for more than two minutes during the breeding season.

While it makes sense that the haunting howling of wolves is more memorable in January, how did wolves come to be associated with the full moon itself? And while this may be a romantic idea, there is no scientific evidence linking wolves to the lunar cycle.

People may have associated wolves with the moon shell because they are nocturnal animals that are very active at night. 

In fact, wolves are so well known for their close associations that the Sioux tribe named January as the full moon when wolves run together. The wolf is often seen as a symbol of loyalty and protection in many cultures.

The Moon of the Wolf is the perfect time to reach out to loved ones and strengthen bonds in preparation to deepen your bonds and take on new challenges together in the coming year. However, lone wolves are perfectly capable of overcoming hostile conditions on their own with their resourcefulness.

According to Celtic mythology, the wolf is imbued with the power of the moon, suggesting its ability to sniff out hidden insights or information and uncover unexpected sources of danger.

A full moon is a good time to plan smart ways to achieve your goals for the coming year. Trust your gut when making decisions, but also be consistent in your search for useful information that will help you execute your master plan.
