Full Worm - March Moon As the temperature begins to warm and the ground begins to thaw, earthworm casts appear, heralding the return of the robins. The more northern tribes knew this Moon as the Full Crow Moon, when the cawing of crows signaled the end of winter; or the Full Crust Moon, because the snow cover becomes crusted from thawing by day and freezing at night. The Full Sap Moon, marking the time of tapping maple trees, is another variation. To the settlers, it was also known as the Lenten Moon, and was considered to be the last full Moon of winter. Farmers Almanac;where else?
Ya know, I got the Worm Moon from the Almanac, but they didn't have the explaination this time. I'm such a geek, I get the monthly newsletter.... Spring is near! Hooray! And as typical of March in Ohio, it will snow tonight (2" they say)and be cold as a banker's heart all weekend. More Guinness on Friday and Jamisons to warm our bones!
