Amid the cold and deep snows of midwinter, the wolf packs howl hungrily outside Indian villages. Thus, the name for January’s full moon.

Since the heaviest snow usually falls during this month, native tribes of the north and east most often called February’s full Moon the Full Snow Moon. Some tribes also referred to this Moon as the Full Hunger Moon since harsh weather conditions in their areas made hunting very difficult. (Farmer’s Almanac)
