Antlers represent strength and virility as they signify the male deer&#8217;s power during the peak of summer.<\/span><\/li>\n<li data-hveid=\"CAMQAQ\" data-processed=\"true\"><span class=\"T286Pc\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-processed=\"true\"><strong class=\"Yjhzub\" data-processed=\"true\">Wolf Moon:<\/strong> The January full moon is named for the wolf packs that howl during the cold winter nights, representing tenacity and strength. While historically associated with hunger, wolves actually howl to reinforce social bonds and mark their territory.<\/span><\/li>\n<li data-hveid=\"CAMQAg\" data-processed=\"true\"><span class=\"T286Pc\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-processed=\"true\"><strong class=\"Yjhzub\" data-processed=\"true\">Strong Sun Moon:<\/strong> According to some Medicine Wheel traditions, this is a moon of rapid growth and trust that occurs around the summer solstice. It is associated with a strong connection to the heart and the ability to work from that center, which develops courage and power.<\/span><\/li>\n<li data-hveid=\"CAMQAw\" data-processed=\"true\"><span class=\"T286Pc\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-processed=\"true\"><strong class=\"Yjhzub\" data-processed=\"true\">Bear Moon:<\/strong> Several tribes associate moons with bears, typically around January or February, the time when bear cubs are born. The bear is a symbol of strength and introspection in many Native cultures. For the Miami people, the &#8220;Black Bear Moon&#8221; (December\/February) is named for the mother bears giving birth, which signifies vitality and power.<\/span><\/li>\n<li data-hveid=\"CAMQBA\" data-processed=\"true\"><span class=\"T286Pc\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-processed=\"true\"><strong class=\"Yjhzub\" data-processed=\"true\">Thunder Moon:<\/strong> Another name for the July full moon is the Thunder Moon, referring to the frequent thunderstorms during this period. The power and intensity of thunder are a direct link to strength.<\/span><\/li>\n<li data-hveid=\"CAMQBQ\" data-processed=\"true\"><span class=\"T286Pc\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-processed=\"true\"><strong class=\"Yjhzub\" data-processed=\"true\">Hunter&#8217;s Moon:<\/strong> For some tribes, the October full moon signifies the time for hunting animals that are fattened up before winter.
