Spring is in full bloom, fruit is ripe and summer days approach. The days are filled with hot temperatures and cool refreshments to quench our thirst. In June we are seeing spring transform into summer, and with this shift there is also a shift in energy. June’s energy will reach its highest points during the full moon and summer solstice. The full moon provides a lot of energy, but with the summer solstice this month that energy is amplified. This energy will come in enormous waves throughout the month as we approach these prime energy points. The high energy that is flowing throughout the month provides opportunities to push onward and harder in our endeavors. As spring swings into full bloom, and summer begins, there is a surge of adventure, optimism and confidence in ourselves that will make waves this season.

We know the June Full Moon as the Strawberry Full Moon in North America. The Full Moon name in June comes from Native American tribes and their harvest of strawberries. In June strawberries reach their peak in ripeness. The June full moon would then signal that it was time to pick and harvest these fruits. Strawberries aren’t native in other countries, so unique names for this moon exist. Names for this moon include the Honey Moon, Mead Moon, Rose Moon and Hot Moon. The Honey Moon in June has ties with the Roman Goddess Juno. Juno is the goddess of marriage and it was a common time for marriages in June. And what happens after a marriage celebration? The Honeymoon of course! In European areas, the Moon is also known by other names. The Mead Moon marks the time when to cut meadows. The Rose Moon signifies that rose blooms have reached their peak. It is also known as the Hot Moon for the hot summer days ahead. This month flowers, fruits and plants are reaching their peaks and are ready to share in its abundance with all.

During this month there is also a greater awareness about connections being made. The connection to our surroundings and the universal flow. It is a great time for self-reflection to gain new insights with your current situation. Trust your gut instincts. During tough times, know that we have the strength and knowledge to make the best decisions for ourselves. We also feel more connected with others. Thus it is a great time for collaboration, evaluating friendships and exploring relationships. Be open to the adventures and connections with people that come forward. Seeking help and support from others could be the solution you are looking for.

After the rebirth of spring, the season begins to mature into summer. As the season matures to summer, it is a time to celebrate the abundance and growth that surrounds us. In June the energy heightens and the season is coming into fruition. We feel confident in our actions and feel more motivated to push onwards with the work that needs to be done. We have an urge to tackle as much as possible in a short time. Be careful and check in with yourself to make sure you are not doing too much! This high motivation and optimism might lead us to overwork. Take a few moments to pause and reflect. The work from the last few months is showing progress, and it has accumulated with the growth of the season. As the strawberries ripen and roses are in full bloom, we can take the time to enjoy the beauty of the season and the fruits of our labor.

Summer is around the corner, and the June Strawberry Moon reminds us it is a time to enjoy the progress, passion and sweetness of the season.

June Full Moon in Capricorn

In June, the Strawberry Moon will be in the sign of Capricorn. Capricorn is a strict, hardworking earth sign that seeks to build integrity and makes sure  we don’t cut corners along the path to high-reaching ambitions. As this full moon triggers our innate drive for long-range accomplishment, we can ask ourselves how much we’re willing to work for what we desire. Am I willing to put in the necessary effort to reap the rewards? It comes as a hard truth that even while the moon is shining at its brightest, in this berry rich zodiac sign, we are encouraged to see through the seductive lull, and honor structure and strenuous effort that will bring us success.

Climbing Mountains and Setting Goals
The full moon in Capricorn is a great time for us to be setting and tending our goals. In astrology, Capricorn is represented by the mountain goat, and reflects an empowering movement to aim high, achieve, and succeed. It encourages us to clearly evaluate our long-term visions and thereafter develop practical strategies in which we will accomplish them. This energy calls for us to be systematic, efficient, and persistent to ensure that we stay the course and do not fall back on previous tendencies that impede us from achieving our best and highest desires. Capricorn energy enables us to stay disciplined, focused, and determined to overcome obstacles. Capricorn allows us to position ourselves to succeed in our personal and professional ventures.

Establishing a Strong Foundation
When the Full Moon is in Capricorn, there is a heightened emphasis on establishing stability and building sturdy foundations. Capricorn has a practical and realistic nature that helps us to focus on the support structures and systems that facilitate our growth and success. Now is an opportune time to evaluate the foundations of our lives, including our careers, finances, and personal relationships. Then after some reflection, make necessary adjustments for stability and sustainability in all these aspects. By placing importance on long-term planning, we can establish a stable foundation to pursue our aspirations and goals. This lunar event encourages us to think ahead and channel our efforts into endeavors that yield lasting rewards.

Maintaining a Healthy Balance Between Ambition and Self-care
The Capricorn full moon emphasizes the significance of both ambition and hard work. It serves as a reminder to maintain a healthy balance between our drive and self-care, while keeping our emotional well-being in mind. It is vital to find equilibrium during this lunar phase as Capricorn’s strong-willed and determined demeanor can sometimes result in excessive work and neglecting our personal needs. Taking time for rest, contemplation, and rejuvenation is crucial for overall health and wellness. By incorporating self-care practices into our daily routines, we can sustain our energy and motivation in pursuit of success.
