Strawberry Moon rises Monday night, rooted in Indigenous harvest lore
June's full Moon, known as the Strawberry Moon, rises Monday evening and remains full through the night; it may appear yellow to pinkish at rise as light passes through a thicker atmosphere. The name comes from Algonquian-speaking Indigenous peoples marking the wild strawberry harvest, with other nations naming it Green Corn Moon or Berries Ripen Moon; the next full Moon is Buck Moon on July 29.
