Strawberry Moon rises as summer's first full Moon glows golden
TL;DR
June 29 marks the first full Moon of summer—the Strawberry Moon—peaking at 7:57 p.m. EDT; it will appear low in the sky after sunset due to the solstice, rise in Sagittarius, and may take on a golden hue near the horizon from atmospheric scattering, with the familiar moon illusion often making it look larger than usual.
