June's full moon, known as the Strawberry Moon, will occur on June 21, 2024, reaching peak illumination at 9:08 p.m. This full moon coincides closely with the summer solstice on June 20, marking the first day of summer in the Northern Hemisphere. The name "Strawberry Moon" comes from the Algonquin tribes and other Native American groups who used this time to mark the strawberry harvest.
The moon will appear larger and more colorful due to its low position in the sky, a phenomenon called the "Moon Illusion." The Old Farmer's Almanac advises looking southeast just after sunset to see the moon rise, appearing large and golden. The summer solstice, the longest day of the year, happens when the North Pole is tilted closest to the Sun.
For those looking to enjoy the view, some Tennessee state parks offer special activities like full moon kayaking and hiking. The weather is expected to be clear but hot, ideal for moon-watching.
Full moons each have unique names derived from Native American traditions, popularized by the Maine Farmers' Almanac in the 1930s. Here are the full moons for the rest of 2024:
July 21: Buck Moon
August 19: Sturgeon Moon
September 17: Harvest Moon
October 17: Hunter's Moon
November 15: Beaver Moon
December 15: Cold Moon
