Full Moon Calendar 2024

The full moon in December is commonly known as a Cold moon. Some other names for the December full moon include the Long Night Moon and the Oak Moon. This name comes from the fact that the full moon in December happens close to the winter solstice, which is the longest night of the year.

There is a specific flow of yoga poses called a 'moon salutation' or 'chandra namaskar' in Sanskrit which I like to perform during the week of a full moon. This flow is different to the more linear sun salutation flow (surya namaskar) which builds heat. It is a slower, cooler practise incorporating poses such as triangle pose, pyramid pose and garland pose.
