What an emotional roller coaster it’s been.
Everyone has been at the mercy of their feelings since the summer solstice (aka Cancer SZN) began, making decisions based on their ever-changing moods.
Although these decisions aren’t always logical, they’ve been fueled by your gut instinct and desire to self-soothe, which wasn’t much of a consideration during Gemini season. However, as the upcoming Capricorn full moon approaches, you’ll be hit with a much-needed reality check. Listening to your intuition is beneficial in many ways, but in order to achieve long-term goals, certain structures must be in place — and this is exactly what the spiritual meaning of the July 2023 Super Buck Moon is all about.
This month’s full moon is in the cardinal earth sign of Capricorn, emphasizing the need to be serious about your goals and pursuits.
Cancer season allows you to lead with your moods, but on this day, you’ll be more inclined to push your feelings aside and get things done. Because Capricorn is a restricted, Saturn-ruled sign, the moon is considered to be in her detriment. As a result, emotional expression may be more difficult, making this a better time to deal with issues that have less to do with feelings and more to do with logic. This doesn’t mean you have to abandon your emotions entirely; instead, use this time to compartmentalize. Sometimes you have to be disciplined in order to get what you want, but it always pays off in the end.
What’s a Supermoon?
Because of its close proximity to Earth, a “supermoon” is simply a full moon that appears much larger to the naked eye. This occurrence occurs three to five times per year, but this one will be one of the largest of all supermoons in 2023. It’s expected to be about 7% larger than average, which can appear quite large to the naked eye.
What’s a Buck Moon?
Buck Moons occur every July and are always the first full moon of the season. The name “Buck Moon” comes from male deer, who shed their old antlers in order to grow new ones around this time of year. The full moon in July is also known as a Feather Moulting Moon and a Salmon Moon, two animal-inspired names for this lunation.
When Does 2023’s Super Buck Moon Take Place?
The Super Buck Moon will occur in the sign of Capricorn at 07:39 a.m. ET or 01:39 p.m. CET on Wednesday, July 3, 2023.
As the sign of reform, tradition, and discipline, this full moon may represent the completion of a long-term goal or endeavor you’ve been working on. It could also indicate that you’ve been ignoring a task that now requires your immediate attention. Because Capricorn is a Saturn-ruled sign, what is revealed today may require a lot of time and patience. Now is not the time to rush, but rather to be deliberate about what you’re working on. You’ll be less prone to distractions caused by emotional needs now, but that doesn’t mean you should ignore them entirely. Instead, pay attention to how you feel, but don’t let it cloud your judgment.
The house in your birth chart where the full moon occurs can indicate where you’re being called to do some intentional work and structuring. This is the area of your life where you prefer organization and self-control, and on this day, you will be asked to recognize how you can implement more control here. As the emotional Cancer season continues, you’ll be encouraged to strike a balance between your emotional needs and logic. One does not have to cancel out the other; in fact, both are required to feel truly satisfied.
