I don't know if this means anything yet I just read that near me there is supposed to be a 'rare strawberry moon'. Does it mean anything?

Google is your friend.....

Tonight is the Full Strawberry Moon, so called because of the abundance of strawberries around at this time. If you have a lover or a love interest give them roses as this Moon is also known as the Rose or the Love Moon. It is the perfect time to patch up relationships, get married or find a new love. The June Moon is also known as the Honey Moon because it has a slight amber tint to it and it is also a time when bees are at their most active. This is were we get the term 'Honeymoon' a holiday taken after marriage.

Tonight the Full Moon falls on the Summer Solstice. This is a very rare event and will probably only happen once in a lifetime. The Sun is at it's strongest point today and combined with the energy from the Full Moon will make this a potent Full Moon filled with strong energy that can propel us in a new and exciting direction.

The Full Moon is in the sign of Sagittarius which is the sign of truth. Things that were in the dark will now start to come to light, new truths will be revealed. We can look at our lives with more clarity the veil will be lifted. We must also look within ourselves and find our own inner truths. You may experience some restless nights and wild and vivid dreams.

Don't be scared to dream and want for more on this Full Moon, Sagittarius is brave and bold and will give us a boost of courage and ambition. You may feel unstoppable and have a renewed energy. Use this energy to make plans for the future. Be daring and move out of your comfort zone a little, try new things only by doing this can we learn and grow.

This Full Moon will have our emotions on high alert, especially when it comes to matters of the heart. We will be feeling a little fragile at the moment so be kind and gentle with yourself, don't be too self critical, try to stay positive and think about all the good in your life rather than the bad. There may be emotional desire to pack up and go off on an adventure or to visit places that bring up sweet memories.

This Full Moon gives us an opportunity to grow in so many ways and have an epic summer, the earth is full of energy and life now, use these energies to inspire you, be creative and go out into nature for long walks see the beauty all around you and embrace all life has to offer. Let the Sagittarius fires cleanse, heal and energise you.

You are getting a huge blast of positive energy from the Cosmos. Solstices are power days. This is one of the most powerful days of the year. You can feel the shift in your being. The light of the heavens are pouring down into you. Use the light of this Full Moon to find your way home.

Have a blessed Solstice and Full Moon, may God watch over you.

Thanks UM, that was beautiful! I really never heard of it before, thought it might have regional meaning somewhere that couldn't really be googled. I'm not one of these lazy non googlers lol

Did anyone in the US see it? I didn't get a good view.

This is from a FakeBook page called "Wicca Teachings" I believe initially

It's true, I always feel the shift. I can see why ancient civilizations built monuments that spoke to the solstice.

Tonight is a New Moon in the constellation of Cancer. There is a wonderful sparkle to this New Moon. Something feels refreshing and even inspiring. Soak in the fabulous energy. Take time to be near water such as a stream, lake, river, waterfall, rain, sea or Ocean. If you are not able to, taking a nice bath with sea salts will do too. It is helpful to attune yourself to the Cancer water element, flow and be. this will refresh, renew, cleanse and heal you.

This New Moon in Cancer speaks of new life. It encourages us to have faith in our potential alongside a deep resolve to ensure that potential is fulfilled. Just as an acorn contains the imprint of the tree it will become, so too do we contain our future selves in a form within us, waiting, slumbering, gestating, until the time is right to come forth into life and purpose.

In the darkness of this New Moon we are invited to dream our future selves into being. This is an intuitive Moon that has so much it wants to share and asks us to be ready to receive It. This New Moon reminds us that no matter how often we may feel the necessary changes are too great for us to implement, the fact is the change has already happened. We are already transformed, we just haven’t realised it yet, it wants us to stop striving now, to relax, be still and recognise the deep peace within, in which our potential is coming forth, it tells us there is nothing to do and nowhere to go. At this moment, right now, we have everything we need to be who we are meant to be. We are already complete.

The New Moon in Cancer is a good time to commit to personal goals that express the positive energies of the sign of the Crab. These include honoring our deepest, most irrational and intimate feelings, recognizing the sense of security and safety we need from our homes, jobs, family, partners and friends, allowing ourselves to accept support and offer support to others.

This New Moon you will be feeling deep and raw emotions. Your feelings reveal what you truly love and value. They are your guidance system. Your passion for life is fueled by your feelings. They nourish your creative, artistic and intuitive abilities. In fact, having all the wealth in the world does not matter if you do not feel good. Your feelings count. Trust your emotional instincts on this New Moon. Tap into your deepest darkest feelings for they will reveal who you really are and what you truly want.

Let the waters of Cancer wash over you and cleanse your spirit and soul. Have a Blessed New Moon. May the Goddess watch over you.

LOVE this! This one really does feel like a new beginning. Thank you for posting that UM!

[UrsaMajor]

Strangely enough R2T,  for me as well...  Don't know WHAT is beginning but it feels that way

Beautiful post, Ursa.

It has been a few weeks since I feel something new is beginning. Like Ready2, I do not know what, but something new and good is coming.

The sky was great tonight and the outside in the terrace the energy was very light and inspiring.

But my Cancer mother had to be in a really nasty mode when I talked to her on the phone. Maybe some cancers are poorly affected by this new moon.

There we are again. Full moon, Tuesday July 19.
