Buck Moon

As the heat of summer crests, the night sky is illuminated by July’s glorious celestial event: the Full Buck Moon. More than just a beautiful spectacle, this moon carries a profound energy of growth, strength, and transformation.

The name "Buck Moon" comes from the traditional naming systems of Indigenous tribes in North America. It marks the time of year when male deer, or "bucks," are in full-growth mode of their magnificent antlers.

Unlike horns, antlers are shed and regrown every year, becoming larger and more impressive with each cycle. This natural phenomenon makes the Buck Moon a powerful, vibrant symbol of regeneration and renewal.  It also represents strength and resilience that stems from deeper inner work.

Under the Buck Moon, the universe encourages you to reflect on your own progress. Just as the buck's antlers are nearly fully formed by mid-summer, this moon invites you to acknowledge how far you have grown and to step into the most powerful version of yourself.

This period is an ideal time to set clear, practical intentions for the next phase of the year. It is not a time for passive dreaming; it’s a moment for practical manifestation and grounded focus.
