June's full moon will appear larger, lower in the sky, and more colorful due to its proximity to the summer solstice.

The upcoming full moon is known as the 'strawberry moon' and coincides with the summer solstice, marking the longest day of the year.

Look out for the 'strawberry moon,' a rare event post-summer solstice every 19-20 years, appearing larger near the horizon due to the 'Moon Illusion' effect.

The full Moon in June, known as the Strawberry Moon, coincides with the summer Solstice, making it darker than usual.

The Strawberry Moon coincides with the summer solstice for the first time since 1985, making it appear larger in the sky.

Skygazers can witness the full moon's golden hue and larger appearance due to its low position, known as the 'Moon Illusion.'

The name 'Strawberry Moon' comes from Native American Algonquin tribes who used it as a signal for strawberry harvesting, with a belief that wishes made under it come true.

The term 'Honeymoon' stems from the moon's association with Mead or Honey Moon in ancient European folklore, symbolizing the sweetest time for honey harvesting.

The upcoming Strawberry Moon will be golden-hued and appear larger due to its low position in the sky during the summer solstice.
