🌕 🍓 Don’t forget to look outside, if you can tomorrow night, June 3, to catch a glimpse of June’s full moon, dubbed the Strawberry Moon.
Curious about why it’s called a Strawberry Moon? According to The Old Farmer’s Almanac, it has roots in Native American culture, particularly the Algonquian tribes and the Dakota, Lakota, and Ojibwe peoples.
Basically, each Full Moon has its own name—traditionally something that applies to the lunar month when it occurs. For June, Strawberry Moon was chosen because this month marks the period when strawberries are ready for gathering.
When you look up at the sky, you’re not going to see a full moon that looks like a floating strawberry, but you are going to see a beautiful celestial moment that’s worth taking the time to admire.
