FULL MOON. The last full moon of spring occurred on Sunday, June 4, 2023. Nicknamed the strawberry moon and placed under the astrological sign of Sagittarius, it had beneficial effects for the signs of Fire.
[Updated June 9, 2023 5:40 PM] Like every year, in early June, the Strawberry Full Moon was visible in the sky. Even though this full moon appeared a little brighter and a little more dewy than usual, its name referred to the rather short strawberry harvest season. Also, depending on the astrological sign, this full moon had a series of effects, although this must be taken with caution, since they are not supported by scientific evidence.
Placed under the sign of Sagittarius this year, whose character is represented by optimism, luck, but also instability, the signs of Fire (Aries, Leo and Sagittarius) experienced an effect of exaltation. Regarding the Water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces), this full moon helped them to come out of their reserve, and allow them to put forward a well-hidden enterprising side. For Earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn), the Strawberry Full Moon meant introspection. Finally, this full moon will have had an accelerating effect on the Air signs (Gemini, Aquarius, Libra).
This June Full Moon in the fiery sign of Sagittarius has brought both dreams and disillusions. Check out the effects of the June full moon sign by sign:

The influence of the Moon on the Earth is real and scientifically proven: its role is well known and major in the tidal cycle, which itself has multiple implications for the life of our planet. The lunar cycle might also have a slight impact on our bodies and plants, but many popular legends give it much more importance than it actually has: insomnia, aggression, gardening, hair growth, outbreak of deliveries… We help you sort out the (very few) true from the false.
