The first full moon of 2026 will rise with a bit of extra gravitas. January’s full moon, the “Wolf Moon,” will also be a super moon. Here is where and when to see it.

During the full moon, the sun, Venus, and Mars will all be pulling up their suspenders in the sign of Capricorn, making this a lunation where our true purpose (sun) is illuminated (moon), and desire (Venus), and will (Aries) join forces to support the cause. Can dig.

January’s full moon, the wolf supermoon, earned its name because wolves are more likely to be howling during wintertime, a method the animals use to “locate pack members, reinforce social bonds, define territory, and coordinate hunting,” per The Old Farmer’s Almanac.
