Strawberry Moon

"Tap into the spiritual meaning of the Strawberry Moon!!! Enjoy the ripening, birth, and bloom of June. Each month’s full moon has numerous names coming from various traditions, including Native American, European, and Colonial American cultures. Generally, these names refer to the entire month’s moon and carry both symbolic and spiritual meaning. June’s full moon is commonly called the Strawberry Moon, a name that originated with the Lakota, Ojibwa, and Algonquin peoples. The Haida name for this month’s moon is the Berries Ripen Moon. Of course, this refers to the fact that many berries begin to ripen in June. It’s a time not only of blossoming and ripening but of animal babies being born. It’s also the month that contains the summer solstice (on June 21st) and the shift into a new season. European cultures have called this moon the Honey Moon or Mead Moon, perhaps referencing Juno (for whom the month is named); Juno is, of course, the Roman goddess of marriage and childbirth, and June is a traditional time for coupling and honeymooning.
