Hiking with Maria has become a spiritual event, even for this atheist. The lunar treks are 100% magic and I highly recommend everyone make the trip at least once." - Gillian LeviWhy is it called the Full Wolf Moon? It’s thought that January’s full Moon came to be known as the Wolf Moon because wolves were more likely to be heard howling at this time. It was traditionally believed that wolves howled due to hunger during winter, but we know today that wolves howl for different reasons. Howling and other wolf vocalizations are generally used to define territory, locate pack members, reinforce social bonds, and coordinate hunting.
