"The name 'November' is believed to derive from

'novem' which is the Latin for the number 'nine'.

In the ancient Roman calendar,

November was the ninth month after March.

As part of the seasonal calendar November

is the time of the 'Snow Moon'

according to Pagan beliefs and

the period described as the 'Moon of the Falling Leaves' by Black Elk."
