when is a strawberry moon
Claim: June 2015 will see the appearance of a pink-colored 'strawberry moon.'. Example: [Collected via e-mail, June 2015] I am wanting to know if what I saw on Facebook is true or false. There will be a strawberry moon on June 2 2015. Origins: When the annual 'Strawberry Moon' appears in the June sky, some sky gazers expect to witness a rosy lunar event marked by the appearance of a pink-colored moon in the sky. This is not the case, however, as the Strawberry Moon derives its name from the strawberry harvest season and not from any effect that influences the moon's visible hues.
