February’s Full Moon is known as the Snow Moon because of the snowy weather in Northern latitudes. As flakes fall from the sky, they float gently down to earth covering it in a soft, white blanket. ❄️

The month of February is a time for cleansing, purification (which began on Imbolc) and the light of a Full Moon allows us to explore and find deeper meanings. Here’s an easy spell for a Snow Moon ritual.

What’s the Spiritual Meaning of the Snow Moon?

The power of this Full Moon enables us to better connect to ourselves. The Snow Moon is quiet and cold and can help you tap into your intuitive energy. Take advantage of it by channeling the energy and light of the Moon.

The traditional names of each Full Moon were used in farming almanacs. Some of these names came from North American tribes and were adopted by early European settlers. Others can be traced back to Germanic and Anglo-Saxon month names.

The Full Snow Moon gets its name due to the myriad of cold experiences of our ancestors and mostly because of all the snow that falls during this month. February’s Full Moon is also known as the Hunger Moon because of the scarce food sources and hard hunting conditions during mid-winter. Other names for February’s Full Moon are the Storm Moon and Chaste Moon.
