The final full moon of winter rises over the Our Lady of Remedies Sanctuary in San Andres Cholula, Mexico in a third.
It is the second full moon of 2021 – although it is not shining as brightly as last year’s Snow Moon, which was also a supermoon.
The name ‘Snow Moon’ derives from Native American tribes and was given because February is the month for snowfall and colder temperatures.
