Strawberry Moon
What to expect from the Strawberry Moon
This moon will only appear around once every 20 years so ensure you don’t miss its loving, healing energy on the 22nd June, 2024.
With the summer solstice just over the horizon (June 20th), we prepare for the first beautiful full moon of summer, the Strawberry moon (aka the rose moon, or mead moon). Given its name due to the abundance of strawberries during this season.
This moon enters during the season of Capricorn and it is full of Capricorn energy. A time to feel empowered and focused on yourself and your career; helping you build a practical path to your dreams. This moon encourages you to take responsibility and to focus on productivity in your ambitions, career paths and overall personal aspirations.
If you have been seeking a guiding hand or an empowering push in energy, then now could be your time. This full moon is encouraging you to embrace change, seek new opportunities and to connect with mentors. With so much motivational energy flowing through, you may need to be organised during this time. It could be beneficial to establish a good work schedule, to build a structured routine and to focus on taking individual steps. It is important to embrace this energy and to remain grounded, focused and empowered.
Perhaps you feel overwhelmed and you don’t know where to start? Meditation can be an extremely useful tool to connect to the energies of a New or Full moon. Try following these steps:
Create a sacred space within your home or garden, where you can be at peace and undisturbed,
Give yourself permission to pause and focus on your wellbeing,
Allow gratitude into your mind and let go of intrusive thoughts,
Remind yourself of your worth on this journey by repeating simple affirmations such as:
I AM CONFIDENT IN MY ABILITIES
I WELCOME ABUNDANCE INTO MY LIFE
I AM CAPABLE OF ACHIEVING CAREER SUCCESS
I AM ALREADY ON THE PATH TO GREATNESS
I ACCEPT GUIDANCE FROM MY SPIRIT GUIDES
