The darkest month is upon us, but lighting the way in early December is the Cold full moon, named after Native American Mohawk Tradition. December is a chilly month but it is also has a lot of joy and light. This month we celebrate the Winter Solstice- the shortest day of the year but also a symbol for the rebirth of the sun and warmer and longer days to come. We also have the Sabbat of Yule and Christmas if you celebrate which means plenty of fun and feasting. The Cold full

I feel like we have had a lot of cool astronomical events this year and the month of November is no exception. This month we see the full Beaver Moon, named after Native American and European folklore and tradition, as this is the time Beaver's begin to take shelter in their lodges after storage food all summer. This month's full moon coincides with a total lunar eclipse which is why it earns it's name- the blood moon. Depending on where you are, as the moon rises it should a

This month's full moon is known as the Hunter's Full Moon! It gets its name from the fact it occurs around the period that hunters were encouraged to go out to collect and store prey for the long winter ahead. The hunters moon is always the next full moon after the Harvest Moon which occurs around the Autumnal Equinox. It is also known as the Sanguine or blood moon due to the changing colour of the leaves. The month's full moon is all about preparing for the month ahead and t

Autumn is here and with it comes the Harvest Full Moon! This full moon reaches it's peak in the morning hours of the 10th of September, but have a look outside the evening of the 9th to see it in darkness! This aptly named lunar event gets it's name from it's close proximity to the Autumn equinox (On September 22 or 23rd), with this name actually being given to either the September or October full moons depending on which date is closest. This full moon rises for a few days,

This month we have the last Supermoon of the year- The Sturgeon Full Supermoon, the 4th Supermoon we have had in 2022. Supermoons are slightly closer to the Earth than normal full moons and so appear larger and brighter in the sky. The unusual name of this full moon comes from Native American tradition as this time in August is when the prehistoric fish are most readily caught, mainly in the Great Lakes of America and Lake Champlain. Have a look outside on Thursday evening to

This month has a very exciting full moon as it will appear to be particularly bright and large, this is due to the fact it is a super full moon and will be the closest to the Earth when compared to any of the other monthly full moons.

The strawberry full moon of June gets its name not from a pinky colour but because it arrives at the time that strawberries begin to ripen. The full moons get their names from seasonal events and are closely tied to Native American, European and Colonial American traditions. Alternative names for the strawberry full moon include Mead, Rose and Hot Moon. The best time to see it will be the evening of Tuesday the 14th in the UK! This month is all about abundance and enjoying th

Spring is full upon us and May brings the full flower moon as well as a smorgasbord of astronomical events including a total lunar eclipse and a blood moon.

The Full Moon in February is named for a rather simple reason- as February tends to be a month of heavy snow showers. However it is also known by a number of other titles usually associated with animals including the Eagle Moon, the Bear Moon, the Groundhog Moon and even the Goose Moon!

The Full Moon in November is named after beavers who build their winter dams at this time of year. It is also called Frost Moon and Mourning Moon, depending on the winter solstice. According to some sources, the Full Moon for November is named after beavers because this is the time they become particularly active building their winter dams in preparation for the cold season. The beaver is mainly nocturnal, so they keep working under the light of the Full Moon. (FInd out about
