Beaver Full Moon

Aka: Frosty Moon, Mourning Moon,  Moon of Storms

Origin:
At this time of year the beavers are busy preparing for winter.
The last Full Moon before the winter solstice has also been called Mourning Moon. The astronomical seasons do not match up with the lunar months. Therefore, the month of the Mourning Moon varies. Sometimes the Mourning Moon is in November, while other years, it is in December.

Good For:
Going inward, rest and preparation, transformation, spiritual communication

Idea: Plan for a ritual to work on ridding yourself of negative thoughts and vibrations.

The Full Moon is best used for banishing unwanted influences in your life. You can use this time for releasing old patterns or issues, and open the door for healing by giving energy to positive patterns you’ll put in place. Full Moon magic can be conjured during the 3 days prior to the rise of the Full Moon, the night of the Full Moon and during the 3 days after. 

The side of the moon that faces the earth is completely visible all night. From Earth, the sun and moon appear to be at opposite ends of the sky.  As the sun sets, the moon rises.
