JUNE'S FULL MOON

The Strawberry Moon

June serves as the midpoint of our calendar year, a juncture where days stretch their arms wide, basking in the longest hours of sunlight. The allure of the outdoors beckons, as summer officially unfurls its warm embrace. We've journeyed past the Flower Moon's blooming spectacle, witnessing nature's transition into the season of abundance. Among the first fruits to grace our tables are the luscious strawberries, a delightful herald of the coming months.

The Strawberry Moon rises as a beacon of abundance and renewal, symbolizing love, purity, and prosperity. Its arrival heralds a shift from the nurturing rains of spring to the sun-kissed days of summer, a time ripe for adventure and exploration. With schools closing their doors for the season, the call of wanderlust grows louder, inviting us to embark on journeys that nourish our spirits.

As we've tidied up our lives and spaces, June's Strawberry Moon signals a time for leisure and enjoyment. It marks a moment to indulge in the pleasures of travel, whether it's discovering hidden gems in far-off destinations or simply relishing the beauty of our own backyard. With nature in full bloom and the air infused with a sense of possibility, this juncture invites us to embrace the joyous spirit of summer and savor the adventures that await.

This June, let’s experience life with the eyes of a child…let’s challenge ourselves to see things for the first time. This simple exercise is really quite transformative and great fun. As adults we believe we have seen it all. Our brain is so used to predicting what our senses are perceiving that there is a point where nothing is new anymore. Everything is routine and habit. Now is the time to break this! Let June bring back the experience of innocence and delight, the thrill of the endless days of summer.

Our June Moon Exercise is called “everything old is new again.”
