The Farmer’s Almanac tells us that February’s full moon is known as the Snow Moon amongst the Native Americans – Since the heaviest snow usually falls during this month, native tribes of the north and east most often called February’s full Moon the Full Snow Moon. Some tribes also referred to this Moon as the Full Hunger Moon, since harsh weather conditions in their areas made hunting very difficult and the Storm Moon.
According to the Wise Witches Society, this moon is known as the Chaste Moon in the magical world. The antiquated word for pure reflects the custom of greeting the new year with a clear soul.

I’m exploring different Goddess Worship religions, I see your blog is entitled Journey To The Goddess, will you please tell me which Goddess based religion it’s based from, if any?
Hello & Merry Meet! This blog isn’t tradition specific per se – it is mainly a personal dedication & study project that I started when I was a bit more on the softer polytheistic side. I personally believe in a Great Goddess if you will, as well as all the individual Goddesses we see that exist in pretty much every religion & culture throughout the world.
Tiffany,
Asherah is one of Her historically prominent names, though She has many. May I suggest, “Book of Asherah” as worthy of your attention.
