Full Moon

. *Full Worm Moon -- March* 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.
(Farmer's Almanac).
