After the Super Pink Moon and the Super Blue Moon in July, it’s time for the Full Deer Moon! So named by the Amerindians, the Full Buck Moon is a spectacular astronomical event not to be missed. This Thursday evening, open your eyes wide!
Why the Full Buck Moon?
This July, the skies are set to offer you a striking new astronomical phenomenon: the Full Deer Moon, which will literally shine in the starry night. But what makes this full moon so special? And why has it been given its name? The Buck Full Moon owes its poetic name to the natives, in the same way as the Flower Supermoon, which heralds spring. According to Amerindian beliefs, this full moon symbolizes the renewal of nature and the power of life itself. It appears at a specific time of year. That’s when male deer begin to regrow their antlers (which they lose every year). And as the years go by, these antlers get bigger and more impressive… The FullBuckMoon takes place on July 10, at 20:37 GMT. That’s 22:37 Paris time (CEST). With a telescope, binoculars or the naked eye, you’ll be able to take a closer look at the lunar surface.
What are the astrological and spiritual influences of FullBuckMoon?
Astrologically speaking, the Full Buck Moon 2025 occurs in the sign of Capricorn. Opposed to the Sun in Cancer, this Full Buck Moon evokes a tension between individuality and the collective. A duality between heart and mind. It invites astrology enthusiasts to free themselves from what no longer serves them, to detach themselves from certain social expectations and rediscover their inner truth.
And maybe you didn’t know it, but the Full Stag Moon amplifies intuitions and emotions. At this time of year, you could have larger-than-life dreams, as well as major realizations. Spiritually speaking, this July Full Moon is evocative of metamorphosis. It’s also a time for grounding, observation and a return to your deepest self.
