On Tuesday, January 18, 2022, the next full moon is due, the so-called wolf moon.
That's what it's all about.
Stavanger, Norway – Celestial events are often highly anticipated, and then there are those that are barely noticed.
This usually includes the full moon, but on January 18 you should still take a look up.
Because then the so-called wolf moon is coming up.
24garten.de explains how the strange name of the full moon comes about and when it is time*.
Like many other names for full moons, the wolf moon has long been established with us, even if the term does not come from Germany.
Other well-known terms are the flower moon in May or the pink moon in April, which can be traced back to the flowering of pink phlox.
These terms also actually come from English.
In German, the full moon in January is also called Hartung.
