January 13 (Tuesday) is the full moon known as
the Wolf Moon.

Anybody feel like howling?

Gonna go out yakking on Tuesday looking for sea trout and maybe a redfish. There is something magical about being on Estero Bay under a full moon. It's also supposed pass near Mars from our vantage point.

This wolf moon is huge and bright. The worst moon is the hunger moon.

Who gets to name the full moons?

Why "Wolf"?

Are there alternative names for the same full moon, used by different countries?

We watched it pass in front of Mars last night. What a moment on the water.

I assume the names of various moons that sound native American are translated Indian names. The planets are Roman and modern names. Things like asteroids are latin, aster means star and oid means like.

Is the September/early October full moon still called the Harvest Moon in Australia, even though it is Spring there?
