The Moons

The Moons here a determined by the following list, beginning with the
first full moon after Yule. Many different moon names exist, and I've
tried to provide a few alternates -in parentheses- as well.

Wolf Moon {chaste, cold, disting, little winter, quiet, wolf}
Horning Moon {big winter, hunger, ice, storm, wild}
Storm Moon {crow, plow, sap, seed, wind, worm}
Seed Moon {growing, hare, planter's}
Hare Moon {bright, dyad, flower, frog, merry}
Meade Moon {honey, horse, dyad, lovers', rose, strawberry, strong sun}
Fallow Moon {blessing, buck, hay, wort}
Barley Moon {corn, fertile, grain}
Wine Moon {harvest, singing}
Blood Moon {falling leaf, harvest, hunting, vintage}
Snow Moon {beaver, dark, fog, mad, shedding, storm}
Oak Moon {big winter, cold, long night, wolf}

Elder Moon {Blue Moon - the thirteenth moon in a solar year, despite
the modern notion that even the ancients called it the second moon in
a month... for our matrifocal ancestors who lived by a Lunar
Calendar, it was impossible to have two moons in a month, as a moon
was a month!}
