Theres always something new out there to learn (because, life), and youll be super aware of it early this month thanks to the full moonand lunar eclipse!in the sign of Sagittarius .
Its called the Full Strawberry Moon, and its happening on June 5, 2020. This particular full moon is going to push you to expand your knowledge base and what you need to do to be the best version of yourself possible, according to Donna Page , a certified astrologer in Atlanta. But, ya know, theres a lot more to it than that.
Heres what your zodiac sign can expect from the Full Strawberry Moon in Sagittarius this month, plus how its going to impact your future.
Time to cover some moon basics: In astronomy, the moon moves through different phases. When its in a full moon phase, it looks like a big, round ball in the sky. On the flipside, a lunar eclipse is what happens when the earths shadow blocks the sun, according to Space.com .
The strawberry part isnt from astronomy, but it has some cool history: The Native Americans of North America used to name all the different full moons, and often tied those names to what was happening around them at the time. This particular full moon is called a Full Strawberry Moon because it signaled to the Algonquin tribes in eastern North America that it was time to gather wild strawberries, according to the Farmers Almanac . Slight bummer: It doesnt mean strawberries will shoot out of the moon or anything, but a girl can dream.
This is kind of a BFD because its the first lunar eclipse of the year. In general, lunar eclipses signal a time to take a step back and reflect, Page says. This particular full moon-slash-lunar eclipse will make you take a beat to think about what you dont know and wonder what you need to know.
That can seep into all areas of your life, whether you decide to take a Coursera to learn more about how to make the perfect meatball or look into some extra work training to help catapult you to the next level of your career. On the relationship front, this could spark some serious convos with your partner about what you both can do to make sure youre even more of a unit.
At the same time, Mars, the planet of action, comes into the mix to create a little tension. You may struggle to try to figure out the best way to learn something new, or what you should prioritize learning first.
Theres also a restless energy. You want to be with friends , or you want to travel , or you just wanna go out for a beer, but life isnt exactly making it easy these daysand that can feel frustrating AF. Hang in there.
Check out these new solo hobbies to try, based on your zodiac sign:
The Full Strawberry Moon in Sagittarius will impact all zodiac signs, but Gemini and Sagittarius will feel it the most, Page says.
Despite the fact that theres a lil' tension with this full moon, it can really lead to some good stuff down the road. Youll push yourself to learn more and do some self-improvement which, tbh, everyone could use these days.
Oh, and those honest chats you have with your S.O. now can help bring you two closer in the long run, even if it means having to work through some stuff first.
That restlessness you feel right now? It may just be what you need to think outside the box a bit more about meeting up with friends. Maybe youll start doing some socially-distanced driveway meetups, or start up another round of Zoom happy hours. Whatever it is, youll do your best to break the quarantine fatigue and focus on what you can change vs. what youre missing out on.
The next full moon is on July 5, 2020 in the sign of Capricorn. During this full moon, youll have a serious urge to feel useful, whether its to friends, family, or the world.
For now, enjoy learning more. Itll help you do some serious goodfor yourself and the worlddown the road.
