WOLF MOON

It is late January, 2021 and Iīm awake at 2 am when I hear this loud whining sound that seems to come from inside the house, then another sound that is like a growling animal sound, loud, but I am still focused on the darkness inside, searching for the sound. Then I realize it is coming from outside, and I open the blinds to look out the front window of our San Rafael home, and I see a wolf standing at the edge of the sidewalk in front of the door, his long snout angled up, howling at the moon. Wolves use a variety of sounds to communicate. When the pack howls together they create a chorus, similar to humans. They overlay their voices, characterized by rapid pitch changes and wavering howls. Wolves are very rare in California, but I know this one resides locally. Sofia, on the other end of the house, is awakened and recognizes the call of the wolf. I listen to the howling like itīs music. Is this a sign? A few years ago there was a mountain lion in the same spot in front of our doorway. It reminds me of Aldo Leopoldīs lesson about wolves in "Thinking Like A Mountain" that characterizes ecological thinking. "Only the mountain has lived long enough to listen objectively to the howl of a wolf." Having once believed that the eradication of predators, the wolf and mountain lion, would preserve the deer, but didnīt recognize the imbalance it caused, Aldo transformed his thinking to recognize the wolf with a sentiment of ecological integrity. He understood the nature and mystery of the howl. I listen for several minutes, amazed that the animal does not go away, and the howling is louder than any other animal Iīve heard outside. I look through the peephole of the door and heīs in the same position howling, and as soon as I open the door, the wolf runs away.

I didnīt realize it was Januaryīs Full Wolf Moon until I read Bob Weirīs twitter feed when I get up:

"Welcoming in the first Wolf Moon of 2021! Occurring in Leo, it's said to be the luckiest and most prosperous day of the year. The sun shares its light with the generosity of Jupiter, marking new and bright beginnings...

The wolf does more than howl to communicate. They whimper and whine, growl and bark, yelp and snarl, smell, about 100 times stronger than our ability , as is their hearing, superior to humans, with better night vision. They are strong with sharp teeth, and they fear humans and tigers, but humans are not their enemies, and they will not attack unless provoked or threatened. The wolves can be our brothers, protectors, they are loyal workers, and lovers, as their mates and mothers feed their babies with milk. They travel in packs.

The wolves come to play, prancing with their fingers, happily, and causing others to dance merrily, rump in the air and bushy tail wagging.

Inspiration move me brighter
To become a better writer
Workout sweat to make us tighter
Change & choices make us lighter
 
The wolf  moon in the winter air
Shows us not to be lazy or despair
Listen for mysterious howls with night eyes
Make time to workout & exercise
 
Keep balance in motion
Like surfing on a wave in the ocean
Envision changes while fortifying routines
Strengthening connections using machines
 
 Prioritize self-care
Stay intuitive sensitive & aware
Nurture emotional well-being
Listen to the inner voice there
 
Spring will come to ensure your plan
Summer strength of women & healthy man
Autumn patience & salubrious communication can
Under the wolf moon for you & you & your fan
