The Strawberry Moon will be full on 23 June 2026 at 10:32 BST. It will sit soft in the southern sky as twilight deepens. Forecast calls for clear‑cut 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 forecast.
The disc can look large near the horizon because of an optical trick. Look south‑east to south‑west at twilight. The low angle will stretch the moon’s shape, giving a distinct silhouette against the dusk. Astrologers mention a Capricorn theme for June.
