The Strawberry Moon will be full on 23 June 2026 at 10:32 BST. It will sit deep in the southern sky as twilight softens. Forecast calls for crisp weather in southern England from 21 June, so the moon should be easy to see when it rises. Its peak brightness hits at the listed time. Crisp skies are expected.
The disc can look big near the horizon because of an light effect. Look south‑east to south‑west as night falls. The low angle will stretch the moon’s shape, giving a distinct silhouette against the dusk. Astrologers note a Capricorn theme for June.
