The Algonquin peoples, who lived from New England west to Lake Superior, named each month by its full moon.
Tomorrow morning, Tuesday, Jan. 22, we enter the month of the Wolf Moon, at 7:35 a.m. CST.
Its name comes from the wolf packs howling hungrily outside villages, in the lean and cold midwinter.
Of course my birthday falls in the predictable "harvest moon" month...but I see your birthday only missed "full worm moon" month by a few weeks...so maybe your actual birthday falls on "half worm moon"! As long as the worm was only accidently cut in half--and can regenerate-- it's a good sign for a birthday.
