December’s Solstice Moon

Full Moon in December

Across hemispheres, December’s moon represents a turning point either toward quiet preservation or full illumination, inviting clarity, balance, and conscious transition into the next cycle.

Northern Hemisphere - Cold Moon

In the Northern Hemisphere, December’s full moon is traditionally known as the Cold Moon, reflecting the coldest period of the year and the longest nights. It is associated with endurance, stillness, and reflection, as communities historically prepared for deep winter.

Southern Hemisphere - Solstice Moon

In the Southern Hemisphere, December marks early summer and includes the December solstice, when daylight reaches its longest duration of the year. Rather than inward rest, this season emphasizes light, vitality, outdoor gathering, and abundance. Many cultural traditions, from solstice observances to summer holiday celebrations, reflect this peak-light, high-energy period.
