The Wolf Moon - Full Moon January

Updated: Jan 16, 2022

Our first full moon of the year!! The Wolf moon is upon us on January 17th. And its an exciting start to the year!


January's full moon is named after the howling of hungry wolves lamenting the scarcity of food in midwinter. Other names for this month's full moon include old moon and ice moon.

During the wolf moon it is a time for clearing the last year away and starting fresh. It is a wonderful time to cleanse your crystals. Leave your crystals out in the moon (be careful of selenite and natural fibrous crystals - check with me if you are unsure. The Scottish winters can be tough on certain crystals) Pop them outside for 1-3 days and clear all the negativity of the last year.


A Wolf moon is also a good time for a revitalisation of ones dreams and pursuits. Dont worry about the New Years resolutions and their effectiveness. January was a time to take stock and reevaluate. The Wolf Moon is a time to feel empowered and start a new direction, pursuit or life adventure. Feel the power of positivity and confidence the Wolf Moon brings. New and exciting year is ahead and you can achieve great things.


Full Moon - Receiving

A full moon is the most exciting and energetic stage of the moon cycle. Motivation is at a peak during this time, making this the time to finish any projects that you’re working on. This is also a good time to analyse how your energy is being spent and to see if you can be more efficient. Moonstone is the perfect connection to the Goddess and the healing energies of the full moon and should be used during this moon phase.



Tiger Eye is an excellent stone for the Wolf Moon. A stone of Self Esteem! Brings self worth, integrity & the ability to find ones inner strength. Stabilises moods and increases will power. Promotes confidence.

Citrine dissipates negative energies. Has a cheerful and positive vibration. Attracts wealth and good fortune.It helps eliminate toxins, relieve depression. and it reduces the harmful effects of electrical products and environmental toxins. Excellent Wolf Moon stone. Keep it with you, in your pocket or where you sit the most throughout the Wolf moon transition.


Other crystals to keep close by:

Jade: Good luck and good fortune.

Black tourmaline: Powerfully repels negative thoughts and feelings.


And dont forget to sage! Clear and be ready for a new start!
