The Strawberry Moon will be full on 23 June 2026 at 10:32 BST. It will sit low in the southern sky as twilight softens. Forecast calls for clear 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. Clear skies are anticipated.
The disc can look big near the horizon because of an light effect. Look south‑east to south‑west at twilight. The shallow angle will stretch the moon’s shape, giving a sharp silhouette against the dusk. Astrologers note a Capricorn theme for June.
