The Buck Moon is the first full moon of July. It’s considered as the full moon that marks that Summer is here. The Buck Moon represents the antlers having fully grown and velvet for the most part is off. It also signifies that everything is close to reaching its halfway mark with growth. Ever hear of knee high by the 4th of July? That means growth and the Corn should be well on it’s way to full growth and harvest. However here in Michigan the corn is below that mark due to the weather changes (Drought) and a late start of the earths seasons.
Deer in general teaches us how to listen to our “Higher Self” helping us to find the best steps to walk here in the human. Within Native American culture, Deer represent the quest for a successful hunt, but only if we hunt no more than what we need. They are sacred, and are also caretakers of the Great Mother Earth..
They are also messengers who offer peace and calm to situations, urging us all to connect with our higher spiritual selves in order to find balance and strength. The Buck also represents renewal and regeneration. Bringing a new beginning, or opportunity to begin again with the next chapter, enabling us to write our own stories.
This particular Full Buck Moon will also be a Super Moon which means it is at the closest point to the Earth bringing with it the healing energies and empowerment for each of us to utilize the rest of this year. It is also the beginning of the Four Super Moons that will rise to the sky in the next few months, July’s Buck Moon tonight (July 3) works to prepare for the next one in September’s Full Corn Moon September 28th 2023.
I am looking forward to tonight as it rises within Capricorn… as I am a Capricorn I urge all of us born within the Capricorn sign… Empower yourself, charge those gems, crystals, say prayers and tell the Universe we want to be in perfect balance with life here on the Great Mother!
Blessings of today to all.
