About the Buck Moon
The Full Buck Moon represents a time of growth and abundance, as well as a time of inner reflection and self-awareness. It is a time to harness the energy of the moon to manifest your desires and to let go of anything that is holding you back.
In many traditions, the Full Buck Moon is associated with thunderstorms and lightning, as this is a time of year when these weather phenomena are more common. It is also associated with the element of fire, as the hot and dry weather of summer can increase the risk of wildfires.
In Native American cultures, the Full Buck Moon is seen as a time for hunting and gathering, as this is when many fruits and berries are ripe for picking. It is also a time to give thanks for the abundance of the earth and to honor the spirits of the animals that are hunted for food.
In terms of astrological properties, the Full Buck Moon is in the sign of Capricorn, which is associated with hard work, discipline, and ambition. This is a time to focus on your goals and to take practical steps towards achieving them.
