Snow Full Moon 2026

Snow Full Moon February 1, 2026

The Snow Full Moon gets its name as February typically being the snowiest month during our winter season here in the Northern Hemisphere. The abundant snow made it hard for native people to hunt, nicknaming this moon the Hungry Moon. 

Full Moons illuminate things that may or may not be working for us. I think of this time as a release or the letting go phase during our lunar journey. As a Full Moon is capable of raising the tides it can also raise our emotions and intuitive abilities. This makes it the perfect time to celebrate with a Full Moon Ritual. As the surface of the moon wanes, so can our energy around anything you wish to release. Create some time to get grounded and reflect on anything that no longer serves you. This can be people, places, things, limiting beliefs, or old habits.

While the Moon in Leo is focused on fun and creative expression the Sun in Aquarius urges balance between fun and the needs of our friends. Leo rules the 5th House representing romance, children, joy and creativity. This can be a great time to get in touch or reconnect with friends. But for some it could mean a time when we find friendships running their course. Take some time to reflect on this.  

Aquarius rules the 11th house which represents hopes, dreams and wishes! Also known as The House of the Thing Wished For. This is where abundance is found, where wishes become reality. You may find friendships and community are being highlighted. Connect with those who are important to you. 

Happy Snow Moon!

As the Snow Moon rises, I set the intention to be more connected to those around me. I spread love and am loved more than I could ever dream is possible. I embrace my creative side and know I can achieve anything I set my mind to. I shine as bright as the moon and am full of hope & positivity.
