There are actually 13 moon cycles in a solar year because of the differences in revolutions and rotations. However, each of the moons is associated with different qualities based on agricultural practices, weather, or cultural reasons. It is easy to Goggle and find many different names for the moons of a year.

We have worked to figure out what association each moon has for us over the years and have come up with calling this month’s moon the Ancestors Moon.
For us, having connected with the energy of the Ancestors at Samhain, it is a time to especially continue to honor their gifts and blessings.

It might be a good time to set up an Ancestor’s altar or perform some magick to continue to connect you with your own personal or spiritual Ancestors.
If you are someone who celebrates the moons, you might want to consider working to discover what associations each moon has for you and finding a name that matches what you figure out.

Also, don’t forget that sometime during the year, there will be an extra moon for you to name.
