Wolf Moon Magic

January 17, 2025

I had the opportunity to see the lights at the Wild Center in Tupper Lake at the full moon this month. It was a very magical evening.

I believe most people think of the “wolf at the door” in the January moon, referring to the cold and desperation of winter’s depths. We have had a very cold month, after last year’s unseasonably warm winter, but the good thing about that has been more snow to play in.

The wolf is a matriarchal symbol of family, because wolves are so family oriented. The youngsters stay with the clan a few years after they’re full size to help raise the next litters.
