The first Full Moon marking the seasonal transition between Spring and Summer
called the Full Strawberry Moon, rose this morning at 3:44 AM EST and
will rise again tonight just after sunset around 9:27 PM.
In the Northern Hemisphere, it will be the lowest Full Moon of the year since 2006,
appearing to stay close to the horizon and will look larger than average.
This optical illusion will not occur again until the year 2043.
June's Full Moon marks the time when delicious red strawberries are harvested in
abundance and sold in grocery stores, farmer's markets and at your local road stand,
hence the name, "Strawberry Moon". It has nothing to do with the moon's color.
🌝I hope the skies are clear where you are at tonight!🌝
