Strawberry Moon Magic

Saturday, 26th June 2010 is a Full Moon known as the Strawberry Moon

Getting a drink of water from our kitchen around midnight, I had no need to turn on the lights. The large round moon, dressed in a gorgeous creamy yellow was pouring bright shining light through the window, looking so mysterious and magical!

Indulging in my favourite hobby, surfing on the Internet (I'm so glad I live in this age with all the amazing technology) - did you know that the full moon of each month has a name?

June is known as the Strawberry Moon (also Rose or Sun Moon).

The reason for the name is long ago, the Native Americans of North America kept track of the seasons by giving descriptive names to the recurring Full Moons. June was a time to pick ripening strawberries thus - Strawberry Moon. In Europe they named the June Full Moon the Rose Moon. And in India and China and other countries - the visible Full Moon was named according to their climate and culture.

The moon has always been symbolic in Pagan and Wiccan practises; I think we are all drawn, just like the tides of the oceans, to the mystery and wonder of the moon.
