Strawberries are considered a food of love, representative of the goddess Freya, symbolising love and luck in relationships. The Strawberry Moon's spiritual meaning embodies the magic and fullness of life.


This is the time to prepare for the coming season of fruits by making difficult decisions or facing up to responsibilities you may have been avoiding. It's the best time to start afresh and focus on your own personal growth. Remember to pace yourself to avoid over-excitement and over-working during this time as this may lead to tiredness and exhaustion. Instead, use this time to evaluate your goals and intentions to make sure they are realistic and achievable.


Above all think about the joys of life, bask in warmer sunny days to connect with the magic, optimism, joy and strength during the growing season. The Earth and the Universe are about to surge with enthusiasm and your intuition is about to peak so keep an open mind to all of life’s adventures and opportunities.
