The first full moon of the new year, called The Wolf Moon, rises tonight!
According to Space com. the first Super Moon of 2026 reached peak
illumination at 5:03 am this morning, sitting opposite of the rising sun.
Because of her status as a Super Moon, lovely Luna will appear both larger
and brighter than a typical full Moon. Look for her to rise again tonight
just after sunset. By Midnight, she will appear as a huge spotlight in
the skies overhead. I just hope the skies are clear tonight!
According to The Old Farmer's Almanac, what was once believed about wolves
being especially hungry at this time of the year and howling to the moon in protest,
wolf biologists now claim the howling and other vocalizations heard in wolf country
is to locate pack members, reinforce social bonds, to define territory,
and to coordinate hunting.
Wolves are indeed beautiful and intelligent creatures, but, I would never want
to try and "reinforce social bonds" with a pack of them on a cold winter evening!
🌕Hope the skies are clear where you are at tonight! 🌕
