After the full pink moon which took place in April and a little before the shower of shooting stars which will take place in August, the Strawberry full Moon will light up the skies over Toulouse on June 22, 2024. This celestial event is a unique opportunity to admire the natural beauty of our satellite at its peak. Get ready for a magical night under the silver (not pink) glow of this full moon!
Why is it called the “Strawberry full Moon” and where is the best place to watch it in Toulouse?
It’s the Native American tribes who gave this beautiful name to the “Full Strawberry Moon”. The wild strawberries were picked in June, and this moon marked the start of the harvest. A very down-to-earth explanation for such a poetic name!
To take full advantage of the Strawberry Full Moon, you’ll need to find an open spot away from the city lights. The banks of the Garonne or the heights of Pech-David hill are perfect places to observe this full moon.
Don’t be fooled by cloudy skies. But according to the weather forecast, the skies should be clear on the night of June 22, 2024. The full moon will reach its apogee at 7.08pm, but will be visible all night long. A word of advice: the best observation times are just after sunset, when the moon begins to rise.
