On June 11, 2025, the Strawberry Moon arrives in Sagittarius; a sign that doesn’t tiptoe around anything. And wants one thing from you: to be honest. Not just with others, but with yourself.

We’ve reached a point in the year where what’s been building is ready to break through.
Some of it’s ripe. Some of it’s rotten. Either way, this dramatic Full Moon won't let much stay hidden. And as a Sag Moon, I approve!
Sagittarius energy has a way of shining a spotlight on what we’d rather avoid, but that’s the exact thing we need to face to move forward.
It’s a no-BS kind of Full moon!
What this full moon really brings
Sagittarius is known for freedom, but not in the reckless sense. It’s about outgrowing what doesn’t fit. This is why this sign is also a rebellious sign. The rebel is not just Aquarius, it's also seen in Sag.
If you’re still trying to make something work that feels forced, tired, or heavy, this Full Moon is going to push you to stop pretending and take full ownership and accountability over the direction of your life.
It’s the kind of energy that reminds you you’re not here to shrink yourself to make others feel better. You’re here to move in your flow, your resonance, to learn, and to stop waiting for life to give you permission.
If people do not like how you love yourself, then ask yourself.. Are those people really for me?
That clarity might hit hard, or it might arrive gently. Either way, this moon marks a shift: you know what needs to change, even if you’re not sure how yet. And that’s enough to start with.
Practical ways to work with this energy
This isn’t about heavy duty rituals with layers of work. It’s about facing what’s real.
Try this:
Get quiet for ten minutes. Ask yourself: What am I done pretending about? What have I been holding onto that isn’t mine anymore?
Write down one belief that keeps you stuck. Then write one honest truth you’re ready to live by instead. Example: “I need to control everything” becomes “I trust myself to figure things out as I go.”
Burn the old belief. Tear it up. Throw it away. Doesn’t matter. What matters is that you’re done with it and ready to embrace thriving mode and not survival.
Speak the new truth out loud. Even if your voice shakes. That’s the shift.
Affirmation
Say it if you mean it. Say it until you believe it.
“I’m not waiting anymore. I trust my intuition. I move with purpose, even when it’s uncomfortable.”
Message for the Signs
Fire Signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) – The Big House (Tower)
For fire signs, the Tower (Big House) under this full moon can feel intense yet liberating. It signals that old plans or beliefs are crumbling because they’re no longer true for you. Instead of panicking, see it Sagittarian way: this is an opportunity to rebuild on a stronger foundation. Each fallen brick reveals what really matters. In practical terms, if your routine or projects suddenly feel disrupted, use that energy to reevaluate your direction and set a new course aligned with your true goals. Let this shake-up clear the way for something better, as the moon’s insight guides you on what to rebuild.
Earth Signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn) – 5 of Knives (5 of Swords)
Earth signs guided by the 5 of Knives might encounter lingering tension or power struggles. Sagittarius’s clarity suggests reassessing these conflicts: ask yourself if a fight is worth it. The 5 of Knives warns against holding onto resentment or seeking hollow victories. Instead, take a practical approach: what lessons can you learn from the disagreement? The moon’s light encourages you to step back from petty disputes and seek fair resolutions. For instance, if an argument drains you, try releasing it, allowing yourself to move forward with less burden.
Air Signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) – Mother of Sticks (Queen of Wands)
Air signs under the Queen of Wands feel the Strawberry Moon’s fire in a warm, creative way. This queen radiates confidence, charisma, and passion, the very traits Sagittarius celebrates. The message: speak your truth and lead by example. Now is a great time to share ideas or start group projects. For example, teach someone a skill you love, organize a brainstorming session, or voice your long-term plans in a confident way. These actions honor Sagittarius’s love of learning and adventure. Stay engaged; your enthusiasm can spark fresh opportunities.
Water Signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) – Father of Knives (King of Swords)
Water signs guided by the King of Swords can use this full moon’s energy to balance feeling with thinking. The King of Swords stands for clear thinking, fairness, and honest communication. Under the Strawberry Moon, emotions may run deep, but this card advises taking a logical perspective. Analyze your feelings as if you were advising a friend. If a difficult conversation is needed, approach it calmly and truthfully. For example, you could write a pros-and-cons list about an emotional decision to clarify your needs. This kind of analysis brings clarity so you can calmly act from a position of fairness.
Ritual: “Light the Path” – A Release and Truth-Setting Ceremony
What you’ll need:
One white or yellow candle (small enough to be safely placed outdoors)
A piece of parchment paper
A pencil
A lighter or matches
A safe outdoor spot (backyard, porch, balcony, or open area with solid ground)
A fireproof bowl or container for burning paper
Step-by-Step Ritual
1. Set the Scene
Go outside during the full moon—after dark but early enough to see the moon clearly. Find a quiet space where you won’t be disturbed. Place the candle in front of you and light it. This flame represents clarity, your inner truth, and forward direction.
2. Reflect Honestly
Sit still for a few minutes and ask yourself:
What belief, habit, or fear has been limiting me?
Where have I been avoiding the truth in my life?
Be honest. Sagittarius energy isn’t about being perfect, it’s about being real and moving forward.
3. Write It Down
On the parchment paper, write two things:
One thing you’re ready to release that no longer serves your growth.
One truth or intention you want to live by going forward. (Example: “I let go of needing approval. I commit to trusting my own voice.”)
4. Burn to Release
Hold the paper and read both sentences aloud. Then, carefully burn the parchment in the fireproof bowl or container. As it burns, say: "I release what dims my truth. I walk forward with clarity.”
5. Close the Ritual
Watch the flame a few moments longer. When you’re ready, blow out the candle with intention, as if sealing your new direction. Leave quietly—there’s no need for extra ceremony. The work is done.
