January's full moon, dubbed the Wolf Moon, is set to peak on Monday, Jan. 13. January’s full moon will reach peak illumination on Monday, Jan. 13 at 5:27 p.m. EST, according to the Old Farmer’s Almanac.

The January full moon was called the "Center Moon" by the Assiniboine people of the Northern Great Plains, according to the Farmer's Almanac, which noted that the name "refers to the idea that this moon roughly marks the middle of the cold season."

However, January's full moon has other traditional names as well, including the "Cold Moon," "Frost Exploding Moon," "Freeze up Moon," "Severe Moon," and "Hard Moon," which all reflect the weather of the season.
