Cultures across the globe associate seasonal cycles of the Moon with the habits and behavior of familiar common local species of indigenous animals. Ancient Egyptians, Australian Aborigines and several African tribes identify the Moon with cats. While more Northern cultures, such as Norwegian and the Native North American, Greek and Seneca nations, identify the Moon with the wolf. Since wolves eat carrion they are associated with the birth, waxing, waning and death cycles of the Moon.

Greek legend says that wolves sang the Moon into being, and that is why wolves howl at the Moon to this day, as do many domesticated dogs. The general belief is that they howl in winter because they are hungry. What does the Full Wolf Moon bring out in you? A song? A lament? A hunger? A craving? For what? Does it make you feel like singing, or howling and why?

Preparation: In order to enhance your spiritual experience during this ceremony, and add to the collective ambiance and energy of the our virtual circle, these are some suggestions:

• Wear red to represent the free flowing life blood of your primal animal nature – Your energy, passion and power.
• Create a small altar with images and objects that inspire and reflect your personal animal spirit.
• Bring a red candle to ignite your primal energy.
• Bring a drum or any percussion instrument.
• Please bring a drum if you have, or any other instrument and we will do both in honor of the Moon and our own animal nature.
