Full Moon Offer: Thunder Moon
July’s Full Moon on Thursday will grace the night sky. Known as the Buck Moon or the Thunder Moon, both names are from North America for the time of year where male deer grow out their new antlers and for the seasonal storms which often occur during the summer. Other names include the Feather Molting Moon, & the Hay Moon. Celtic tradition named this month’s moon the Wyrt Moon or Herb Moon, as July is the ideal time of year to gather herbs for drying.
Earth recently passed its aphelion, which is the point in our orbit furthest from the Sun, making this Full Moon the furthest from our Sun in 2025.
The Thunder Moon will rise around 10pm and sit low in the sky, thanks to its proximity to the Summer Solstice, so expect a beautiful reddish glow. It joins last month’s Strawberry Moon as two of the lowest Full Moons on the horizon for more than 18 years!
It is the first Full Moon of the Summer in the Northern Hemisphere and three of the planets, Mars, Saturn, & Venus will be sharing the skies, so keep an eye out for those bright dots too.
We are in a time of fullness & abundance and this Thundermoon sparks with energy & intensity as the heat of July can erupt into thunderstorms, releasing its power into the Universe. This Moon symbolises a peak of creativity and abundance, where energy and power are heightened, giving us the time to realise or intensify our manifestations & growth, before the change that Autumn brings, urging us to slow down and preserve our energy and be more measured in our spiritual selves. So this Thundermoon is the time to really charge up those spiritual batteries! Charge your crystals under the moon, make your Moon water to keep you energised until the next Full Moon and if you can, sit beneath this Moon, speaking your intentions, manifesting your wishes, giving thanks to the Universe for your life force and your energy.
