The full Moon of November is called the "Frosty Moon" in old almanacs because it is thought to be the first full moon after a cold frost has covered the ground.

November's moon has other pseudonyms. Can you name them?

The Dakota call it "Moon When Horns Are Broken Off".

The Cherokee call it "Trading Moon".

The Choctaw call it "Sassafrass Moon".

The Celtic call it "Dark Moon".


Walk in Peace and Harmony.

"Moon When Horns Are Broken Off"

From: Thirteen Moons on Turtles Back by Bruchac and London
Quote:
At one time the deer kept their horns all year, but when they entered those winter lodges the bucks continued to fight with each other. Earth Maker seeing how the deer suffered sent Na-na-bush, his helper, to loosen the horns from their foreheads in this moon of late autumn.
