Just a heads up followers….. tonight is the WOLF MOON!!!
We’ll be treated to a long, slow approach between the two brightest planets in 2015, a year that gets off to a running start with a full moon.
January’s “wolf” moon reaches fullness at 10:53 p.m. on the 4th. Its name comes from the howling of hungry wolves outside Indian villages in the deep snow and cold. This moon takes a high trajectory across the night sky, a path that contrasts sharply with that of the sun’s daytime path because in winter — especially early winter — the Northern Hemisphere tilts away from the sun and toward the full moon.
