June's Full Moon

This June 4th, 2012 will be a spectacular full moon with partial lunar eclipse that will be absolutely dazzling to watch! To ramp it up, there will be a transit of Venus joining that energy.

What you might want to know about June's Moon and things you can do.

In Celtic lore and sacred trees, the full moon of June can be associated with either one of 2 trees (Oak and Holly) which is appropriate for the Celtic epic battle that happens twice a year at the solstices, the Battle of the Oak King and Holly King.

If you follow the Oak Tree for this full moon, then you want to focus on these themes: Strength & Protection.

If you follow the Holly Tree for this moon, then you want to challenge yourself. Take yourself out of your comfort zone and then re-establish your balance.

The Farmer's Almanac for North Eastern America refers to this full moon as the Strawberry or the Rose Moon for its tendency to take on a pinkish hue and the harvesting of strawberries at this time. It is a time to celebrate your achievements and accomplishments. What have you done that you should celebrate? Go to your local farmer's market and buy their strawberries. Celebrate with Strawberries and cream. Don't forget to offer some to your local faeries! Give a rose to someone you love and share your celebration with them.

At the shop, we have featured a few very special items:
