🌕🦌 Full Buck Moon – July 10, 2025
On July 10, 2025, the night sky was illuminated by the glowing presence of the Full Buck Moon—a celestial milestone deeply rooted in nature and tradition.
🔍 Why “Buck Moon”?
This full moon gets its name from a seasonal marker: July is when young male deer (bucks) begin to grow their new antlers. Covered in velvet and full of potential, these antlers symbolize renewal and strength—echoed by the moon’s steady rhythm in the sky.
đź” Astronomical Notes:
– The moon appeared full and golden, especially near the horizon
– It rose shortly after sunset and traveled across the sky all night
– Positioned near the galactic center, it offered a perfect pairing with the Milky Way for stargazers and photographers
🌍 Cultural Roots:
Also known as the Thunder Moon or Hay Moon, this lunar phase was used by Native American and agrarian societies to guide seasonal activities like harvesting, gathering herbs, or holding ceremonies.
💫 As the Moon cycled into fullness, it reminded us of nature’s timing, ancient traditions, and the quiet power of transformation.
