The Snow Moon rises at the heart of winter — a time of deep stillness, endurance, and quiet transformation. Peaking on February 1st and aligning with Imbolc, this full moon marks a powerful threshold between the coldest days of the year and the first subtle stirrings of spring.

In this episode of Witch Beneath the Willow, we explore the magic, folklore, and symbolism of the Snow Moon. From its many names across cultures — including the Hungry Moon, Ice Moon, and Storm Moon — to its connection with fire, creativity, and inner strength, this lunar moment invites us to slow down, listen inward, and trust what is growing beneath the surface.

We’ll talk about:• The history and folklore of the Snow Moon• Lunar timing and seasonal symbolism• Magical correspondences, deities, herbs, crystals, and animals• Why this full moon is ideal for release, renewal, and intention setting• Snow Moon rituals including cord cutting, moon water, journaling, and creative magic

This episode is a reminder that winter is not empty or stagnant — it is fertile, sacred, and alive with unseen change. Under the Snow Moon, we are asked not to rush forward, but to surrender gently, reclaim our energy, and prepare for what comes next.

✨ Next episode: Imbolc — releasing a day or two early to honor the turning of the season.
