Why is it the Wolf Moon?
It is called the January Full Moon Wolf Moonname that derives from the tradition of the ancient peoples of Europe and America. On the freezing nights of this month it was common to hear the howling of wolves in the villages, which marked the association between the animals and this lunar phase.
At the time, it was believed that wolves howled from hunger during the harsh winter. However, we now know that these sounds are part of communication between wolves, used to strengthen social bonds, coordinate hunting and mark territory.
The Wolf Moon also brings with it a special symbolism: it represents strength, resilience and the ability to join forces in difficult timescharacteristics related to the energy of wolves. This is a great time to reflect on your connection to others and how you can strengthen your relationships and goals in the new year.
However, despite being very well known, astrologically these names have no particular meaning. According to astrologers, the important thing is that it is a Full Moon, the most intense of all lunar phaseswhich can enhance emotions and actions.
The energy of the Full Moon in January
In the January full moon astrology chart, we have a opposition between the Moon and Mars in Cancer and the Sun in Capricorn, which is already approaching Pluto. This scenario paints a climate of emotional tensionwhich requires balance and maturity.
Like every Full Moon, we are dealing with opposites:
- on the one hand it brings the Sun in Capricorn concentration and responsibility;
- on the other hand, the Moon and Mars in Cancer intensify the emotionality, irritation and impatience.
According to the astrologer Vanessa Tuleskithis can lead to moments where we lose our way and, immediately afterwards, try to apologize. It’s worth paying attention to your reactions and postures, especially on social media.
This transit can also activate insecurities typical of Cancer, but, with Mars in play, it will be necessary to act, even in the midst of uncertainty.
The Sun in Capricorn helps temper emotions with maturity, asking us to move forward with determination, even without having all the answers.
Finally, it’s time to embrace the emotional side without falling into exaggeration. Cancer invites us to be careful with our pain and emotions, while Capricorn reminds us that maturity is essential to face challenges.
It’s an opportunity to balance the heart and reason and take the first steps towards your goals for the new year, despite your doubts.
