The wolf moon, the first full moon of 2024, is a great opportunity to set some firm resolutions for the coming year.
Full moons, according to astrology, signify completion and culmination. Your intuition and emotions will be at their peak, and you will have better vision.
Leo, a fire sign with a heart center and a reputation for both gentle fierceness and playful, outgoing energy, will have the wolf moon at its peak on Thursday, January 25, 2024, at exactly 12:54 p.m. ET/6:54 p.m. CET. The January 2024 wolf moon full moon, while typically associated with dramatic or intense emotions, is really about pushing yourself to release the fears and insecurities that have been holding you back from reaching your full potential.
During this wolf moon, which is ruled by courageous Leo, qualities such as compassion, generosity, empowerment, selfishness, and greed are on the rise. You may be experiencing a sense of closure with matters that transpired during last year’s Leo new moon and had an effect on your ability to express yourself creatively and freely.

The Wolf Moon: What Is It?
First full moon of the year is called the wolf moon. If Earth can see the moon’s entire surface illuminated by the moon’s light, then we are witnessing a full moon. If you happen to be outside when the moon is in a sextile with the sun and Earth in the middle, you may experience this effect as the moon reflects the sunlight back to you. If you’re interested in astrology or spirituality, you should know that the full moon occurs approximately every 29.5 days.
Why Is It Called a Wolf Moon?
The wolf moon is a popular name for the January full moon. Many cultures attribute the name to the fact that wolves howled during the colder months, when they were most active, as stated in the Old Farmer’s Almanac. The term “wolf moon” came from the belief that wolves would be most active during the January full moon.
Traditional indigenous communities refer to the wolf moon as the “center moon” or the “frost exploding moon” because of its midwinter timing.

Moving or decluttering to make room for a home office are two options for bulls who are hoping to improve their living quarters in the new year. Additionally, repressed feelings could come bursting forth. Tension relief is possible through healing practices such as breathing exercises and meditation.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
Let your emotions shine through, Gemini. Especially if you want to build your network or learn a new skill this year, being open and honest about what you do and what you learn can help you make new connections and opportunities. Despite the discomfort that comes with stepping out of your comfort zone and sharing vulnerable truths, the benefits of freeing yourself from overthinking through honest and direct communication are worth it. Hash it out. Venting is OK.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
Cancer, being thankful for what you have can attract more of the good things in life. That is something to think about if, during the scorching wolf moon, you start to worry about your financial situation. Now that a new year has begun, take advantage of this potent lunation to reevaluate your priorities and ways of making money. Is a new job, promotion, or salary increase in order? Get exactly what you desire by being specific.
Leo (July 23 – August 22)
At this very moment, Leo, everyone is looking at you. Take advantage of the spotlight that this blazing wolf moon brings. In order to reflect on your personal growth since the last Leo full moon in February 2023, it is recommended that you take a break from your regular routine and disconnect from your relationships for a while. What are your proudest accomplishments? What else can you do this year to make it even better?
Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
Been experiencing unusually low energy levels as of late, Virgo? Relax during the tumultuous wolf moon. Listen to your body if it’s telling you to spend more time alone so you can process difficult emotions and get more sleep if you’ve been feeling the need for more “me” time and relaxation than normal. Furthermore, during this raging lunation, painful memories from the past might resurface. As you go through them, be gentle with yourself and those around you.

After all your hard work behind the scenes, the brilliant wolf moon is here to encourage you to proudly display your one-of-a-kind works and talents to the world. You should resist the urge to change who you are or what you believe in order to fit in with other people. Let your support system see the genuine you by removing the filter. All I need is you!
Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)
At work, things are getting hotter, Scorpio, which might lead to greater office respect, recognition, or responsibility. This full moon is all about discovering your capabilities, so reach out for help and rest when you need it. Extreme burnout could happen if you don’t. To help you ground yourself and keep a good work-life balance, try beginning and ending each day with joyful activities. Just tackle each day as it comes!
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)
This full moon is igniting your thirst for adventure, so hold on to your passport, Sagittarius.

At the same time, archers who are aiming to advance their skills might be finishing up a certification or even graduating. How are you going to impart the knowledge you’ve acquired?
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
At this very moment, Capricorn, there are major changes taking place. As you go through these changes, try to be easy on yourself. Remember to celebrate your progress since the August 2023 Leo new moon, whether it’s working to release debt, prioritizing deep emotional healing, or simply rediscovering what brings you joy. You can achieve remarkable progress by embracing your current state of process instead of fighting it. Take it easy.
Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)
Embrace the abundance of love that is coming your way, Aquarius. Now is the perfect time to organize a wild birthday bash for close friends and family or a steamy date with your significant other, as this passionate full moon is focused on your closest relationships. Be wary of escalating arguments; this could be a testing time for partnerships. Instead of getting caught up in pointless drama, concentrate on finding solutions to conflicts.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Having trouble focusing, Pisces? During the wolf moon, it’s a good idea to take it easy and center yourself. Now is the perfect moment to make a fresh commitment to the habits that will help you stay mentally, physically, and emotionally healthy. Consider enrolling in a group program if you need dependable resources and encouragement but don’t know where to begin. It is imperative that you document your outcomes.
