The illuminating Full Moon clocked in at 5:28AM EDT this morning. It is known as the “Sturgeon Moon” because the sturgeon of the Great Lakes and Lake Champlain were most readily caught during this Full Moon. It is also known as the “Full Green Corn Moon,” the “Wheat Cut Moon,” the “Moon When All Things Ripen,” or the “Blueberry Moon”. According to astrologists, this is a time to send out healing thoughts and prayers to humanity. The arrival of compassionate Pisces Moon (12:35PM EDT) swings the compass of life decidedly toward altruism and empathy – recommendations include: being extra generous with hugs and kisses; assisting elders and shut-ins with difficult chores; irrigating your garden; and enjoying a soulful walk by a favorite waterway.
