#December2021 Archives - Broadwindsor.org

The cold weather is upon us and appropriately, December’s Full Moon is most commonly known as the ‘Cold Moon’. The Moon will be full at 04.35am on Sunday, 19th December.

Other names that indicate the cold and snow given to this Full Moon are:

Drift Clearing Moon (Cree),
Frost Exploding Trees Moon (Cree),
Moon of the Popping Trees (Oglala),
Hoar Frost Moon (Cree),
Snow Moon (Haida, Cherokee),
Winter Maker Moon (Western Abenaki)
Moon When the Deer Shed Their Antlers (Dakota)
Little Spirit Moon (Anishinaabe).

This Full Moon has also been called the Long Night Moon (Mohican), as it rises during the “longest” nights of the year, which are near the December winter solstice.

In Europe, ancient pagans called the December Full Moon the “Moon Before Yule,” in honour of the Yuletide festival celebrating the return of the sun heralded by winter solstice.

Following last year’s fabulous Advent windows trail around the village* there is some energy to have another go. This year the theme is much broader – The Heart of Christmas.

There is a list in Broadwindsor Community stores – please sign up there 🙂

Sign up for which day in December you want to light your window.
Interpret the theme any way you want.
Windows are lit up each day around 4pm and kept lit until later in the evening, switch off when you like.

As the month progresses more and more windows appear 🙂
Please sign up choosing dates from the end of the month (24th Dec.) first – that way if we have fewer than 24 people we can just start later through December.

Please sign up no later than Sunday 21^st November.
