Strawberry Moon rises on Sunday 6/16/2019 (Fathers Day weekend)

The June Full Moon or the last full Moon of spring is called the Full Strawberry Moon.
This Full Moon got its name from the Algonquin tribes in eastern North America who knew it as a signal to gather the ripening fruit of wild strawberries. 
An old European name for this Moon is the Honey Moon or the Mead Moon. It has also been called the Full Rose Moon in Europe.
