What Is the Strawberry Moon?

The Strawberry Moon is the name given to the full moon that appears in June. It got its name from Indigenous tribes who used this time to mark the beginning of strawberry picking season. So no, the moon won’t actually look pink or red (although sometimes it does have a warm golden glow if it’s low in the sky).

Spiritually, the Strawberry Moon is tied to themes of love, passion, growth, and abundance. It’s a time when nature is bursting with life, and we’re invited to align with that energy. Think of it as a full moon that wants you to bloom — whether that means opening your heart, deepening your relationships, or nurturing a creative project that’s ready to ripen.

1. Perform a Love Bath Ritual

One of my favorite ways to soak in the energy of the Strawberry Moon is with a love bath ritual. This moon is all about passion, self-love, and emotional growth — so why not literally bathe yourself in those vibes?

Start by running a warm bath and adding ingredients that align with the moon’s energy. I like to use dried rose petals, a handful of Himalayan pink salt, and a few drops of essential oils like ylang ylang or geranium. You can also surround your tub with a few rose quartz or moonstone crystals (just make sure they’re safe to be around water).

Light a candle or two, turn off the lights, and soak in the tub while visualizing soft pink light surrounding your body. Say affirmations like, “I am worthy of deep love,” or “I welcome sweetness and joy into my life.” If you’re healing from heartbreak or emotional wounds, this is a powerful time to let go of pain and invite in healing.

After your bath, journal anything that came up during your soak. The water element helps release emotional blocks, so don’t be surprised if you get clarity or emotional breakthroughs while you’re in there.

2. Charge Your Crystals

This full moon is the perfect time to cleanse and charge your crystals with loving and abundant energy. The light of the Strawberry Moon carries a warm, nurturing frequency, which pairs beautifully with heart-centered stones.

To start, gather crystals that align with the Strawberry Moon’s energy. Think rose quartz for love, green aventurine for abundance, moonstone for intuition, and rhodonite for emotional healing. Cleanse them first — either by smudging with sage or palo santo or placing them on a selenite slab.

Then, place them outside under the moonlight or on a windowsill where the moon will shine. You can even create a little moon altar with your crystals, a candle, and fresh strawberries or flowers.

As they bathe in the moonlight, say a blessing or intention for each one. For example: “May this rose quartz help me give and receive love freely,” or “I charge this moonstone to guide me with clarity and intuition.”

Leave them overnight if possible, and by morning, your crystals will be buzzing with Strawberry Moon energy — ready to use in your spells, meditations, or to simply carry in your pocket as a little boost of lunar magic.

3. Make a Spell Jar for Love or Abundance

Spell jars are one of my go-to rituals for manifesting, and the Strawberry Moon offers the perfect energy to craft one that brings in love or attracts abundance. You’ll only need a small jar, some herbs, crystals, and a whole lot of intention.

Start by layering your ingredients in a clean jar. I like to include:

• Dried strawberries or rose petals (for love)
• Basil (for prosperity)
• Chamomile (for peace)
• A pinch of cinnamon (for passion and fast action)
• A tiny rose quartz chip (for emotional healing)
• A piece of green aventurine (for good luck)

As you add each item, say aloud what you want it to represent. Be specific with your intention. Do you want to manifest romantic love, deepen self-love, or attract joyful friendships? Seal the jar with a pink or red candle, letting the wax drip over the lid to close the spell.

You can hold the jar under the moonlight to charge it and then keep it on your altar or somewhere special. Every time you see it, let it remind you that you’re open to receiving love and abundance in all forms.

4. Do a Tarot or Oracle Card Reading

Doing a card reading under the Strawberry Moon is a great way to tap into your intuition and gain clarity around matters of the heart, creative pursuits, or emotional healing. The energy during this full moon is extra potent for insight, especially when it comes to love and relationships — both with others and with yourself.

To start, cleanse your deck however you like — smudging, knocking three times, or simply holding it to your heart with a deep breath. Then, set an intention. Ask something like, “What is ready to bloom in my life?” or “What do I need to release in order to welcome more love and joy?”

You can do a simple 3-card spread (Past / Present / Future or Situation / Challenge / Advice), or go deeper with a custom Strawberry Moon spread. One of my favorites is:

• Card 1: What energy is ripening in my life?
• Card 2: What do I need to release under this moon?
• Card 3: How can I invite more love and abundance?
• Card 4: What gift is this moon offering me?

Journal your thoughts after the reading. The messages might not make sense immediately, but trust your intuition. Under the light of the full moon, your inner voice is stronger than you think.

5. Journal for Release and Manifestation

There’s something so calming about writing under the moonlight, especially during the Strawberry Moon when emotions are high and ripe for transformation. This is a powerful time for journaling to let go of what no longer serves you and to call in what you desire.

Find a cozy spot outside or near a window with moonlight. Light a candle if it feels right. Start with a simple prompt like: “What am I ready to release?” Let yourself write freely — don’t overthink it. Pour it all out. Old beliefs, toxic relationships, doubts, guilt — this is the stuff we want to leave behind.

Once you feel like you’ve emptied your emotional backpack, shift gears. Use a fresh page and ask: “What am I ready to welcome into my life?” Write down your wishes, dreams, and intentions. Be specific and write in the present tense as if it’s already happening: “I am attracting a relationship rooted in love and mutual respect.”

You can even end by writing a simple affirmation and reading it out loud under the moon. Keep your journal somewhere safe and revisit these pages during the next full moon to see how your energy has shifted.

6. Create a Strawberry Moon Herbal Tea Blend

Rituals don’t always have to be elaborate. Sometimes they’re as simple as sipping tea with intention. Creating your own Strawberry Moon herbal tea is a sweet and grounding way to connect with the season and its energy.

Start with a base of dried strawberries (or a strawberry-flavored herbal tea). Then add herbs that resonate with love and healing. My favorite blend includes:

• Dried strawberries (sweetness and heart energy)
• Rose petals (self-love and romance)
• Lemon balm (calm and clarity)
• Chamomile (soothing emotions)
• A pinch of cinnamon or vanilla (warmth and passion)

Steep your tea, and while it brews, hold your hands over the cup and infuse it with your intention. Say something like: “With each sip, I welcome joy, love, and healing into my life.”

Drink it slowly and mindfully. You can even pair this ritual with journaling, a bath, or a moonlit meditation. Bonus: if you grow your own herbs, this is a beautiful way to honor your garden during this lush time of year.

7. Do a Moonlight Dance or Movement Ritual

The energy of the Strawberry Moon is joyful, full-bodied, and sensual. This makes it the perfect time to move your body and get out of your head. Whether it’s a full-on moonlit dance party or just some gentle stretching outside, let your body guide you.

Find a private spot where you can move freely. It can be outdoors under the moon or even in your room with the curtains open. Put on music that makes you feel alive — something that helps you feel rooted in your body and connected to your emotions.

As you move, let go of judgment. Dance like no one’s watching (because really, the moon doesn’t care how you look — she just wants to witness your joy). Imagine each movement releasing stagnant energy, fear, or tension.

You can even dedicate your dance to a specific intention. Want to invite more pleasure? Move with sensuality. Need to release grief? Let it rise and shake it out. Movement is a form of magic, and the Strawberry Moon supports all things embodied and heart-led.

When you’re done, place your hands over your heart and say a little thank you to your body, the moon, and the energy you’ve just stirred up.

8. Write a Love Letter to Yourself

This might sound simple, but writing a love letter to yourself under the Strawberry Moon can be incredibly healing. With the moon’s energy focused on love and emotional fulfillment, it’s a powerful time to reflect on your journey and show yourself some serious compassion.

Find a quiet space and grab a pen and paper. Begin with, “Dear [Your Name],” and just let your heart speak. Acknowledge your strengths, your growth, your resilience. Talk to yourself like you would a dear friend who has been through a lot but still shows up.

You can include things like:

• “I’m proud of how far you’ve come.”
• “You are deserving of love, rest, and joy.”
• “You’re allowed to take up space and ask for what you need.”

If any negative emotions or feelings come up, such as tears, resistance, or discomfort, that’s okay. That’s the magic working. This moon is a time for healing and softness, and self-love is a spell in itself.

After you finish, you can fold the letter and place it on your altar, tuck it in your journal, or keep it somewhere special. Revisit it anytime your heart needs a little reminder of how deeply worthy you are.

9. Create a Full Moon Flower Mandala

A flower mandala is a beautiful way to honor the Earth and connect with the cyclical energy of the moon. When everything is in bloom during the Strawberry Moon, it feels extra meaningful.

Start by gathering flower petals, herbs, crystals, leaves, and anything else that speaks to you. You can use fresh strawberries, wildflowers, or even fallen blooms from your garden.

Choose a space outside or near a window, and begin laying your pieces out in a circular design. Work from the center outward, letting your intuition guide the pattern. There’s no right or wrong way to do it. Just let it unfold.

As you build your mandala, infuse it with your intentions. Each layer can represent something: self-love, abundance, emotional healing, creative flow. Speak your intentions aloud or silently as you create.

Once you’re finished, sit with your mandala and meditate. Let the symmetry and natural beauty fill you with calm and gratitude. If you’re outside, let the moonlight wash over it. If you’re inside, place a candle in the center to represent lunar light.

Leave it overnight if possible, then return it to the Earth by scattering the petals or composting them with gratitude.

10. Complete a Group Circle or Solo Ceremony

You don’t need a coven to perform a beautiful Strawberry Moon ceremony, but if you do have witchy friends, this can be a wonderful time to gather in circle. Whether you’re solo or in a group, the ritual is all about honoring the full moon and connecting with love, intention, and nature.

Start by casting a circle (physically or energetically). Light candles, place strawberries or rose petals on your altar, and set the mood with soft music or drumming. You can include elements like:

• A guided meditation to open the heart chakra
• Sharing intentions out loud
• Burning slips of paper with things you’re releasing
• Drawing cards or pulling runes
• Chanting or singing together

If you’re solo, you can keep it intimate and personal. Speak your intentions aloud, light a candle for your heart’s desires, and just be in the energy of the moon. You might want to end by placing your hands over your heart and saying: “I honor the light within me. I am ready to bloom.”

Closing your circle is just as important. Thank the elements, blow out the candles, and ground yourself with a small snack or a walk in nature.
