Strawberry Moon 2024
Strawberry Moon June 22, 2024
It’s the first Full Moon of the Summer! This moon is called the Strawberry Moon marking the ripening of “June-bearing” strawberries that are fit to be harvested. As the early bloomage of spring flowers emerge, early fruit ripens. This is a wonderful reminder that any seeds or intentions you have planted will begin to bloom. We begin to see results from our intentional actions we have taken.
Full moons bring heightened energy. Just as the moon causes the tides to rise and fall we can also find our emotions to experience highs and lows. During this time we may discover our feelings are wound up or anxious. Sometimes discouraged if our new moon wishes / intentions have not manifested yet. It's important to remember that some manifestations need more time. This is why Full Moon Rituals are performed, to release low energies, patterns, anything you may find counterproductive. Allow the brightness of the moonlight to shine on any darkness, to unblock, heal and shed the past.
This Full Moon falls in Capricorn with the Sun in Cancer. Capricorn’s theme includes professional life; ambitions & career. Cancer represents home and family. Remember every Full Moon brings polarity between its moon and sun sign so it’s important to remember to have a healthy balance of home and work life at this time. This is an excellent time to revive your profession or move forward with career opportunities that have presented themselves. Capricorn is ruled by the planet Saturn reflecting challenges, responsibilities, commitment, wisdom, perseverance, and karma. Saturn life lessons teach us to grow, mature and help us take steps needed in achieving our goals. Saturn is also known for bringing up distress or discouraging emotions. During the heightened energy of the Full Moon try not to hang on too tightly to these perceptions. Release any worry you may be carrying.
Happy Full Moon!
