Full Moon February 2026: Exactly When To See The ‘Snow Moon’ Rise
- On Sunday, Feb. 1, the February Snow Moon will turn full at 100%, with New Jersey still coated from last week's storm and more snow possible this weekend.
- According to the Farmer's Almanac, the 'Snow Moon' name comes from Native American tribes because February is one of North America's snowiest months, and this full moon is the last lunation before eclipse season, peaking in Leo.
- Astrologically, the lunation rises in Leo, giving fiery, confident energy, while an Aquarius stellium of Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Pluto creates tension between collective focus and feelings.
- Punxsutawney Phil will emerge on Monday for Groundhog Day, while a total lunar eclipse on March 14 will turn the full moon reddish-orange for over an hour.
- Sky watchers note that in 2026, there will be 13 full moons because May will have two, including a blue moon on May 31 and the March 'worm moon'.
