At , the Moon moves into Capricorn.
A day for responsibility; what you plan now rests on solid ground. Allow some rest as well; the back and knees appreciate it.
Full moon
The Moon stands opposite the Sun and its whole face is lit. It rises around sunset and shines all night. In lunar tradition, the full moon marks a turning point: what was building culminates, and the weeks of letting go begin.
On its monthly path across the sky, the Moon is now climbing: seen from the Northern Hemisphere, each day it crosses the sky a little higher than the day before. In planting tradition, the ascending Moon is the time of rising sap—a time for grafting and for harvesting fruit meant to stay fresh.

A cold earth day in Capricorn is steady and persistent, made for work that takes stamina.
Lunar day 15
The fifteenth lunar day asks for restraint: avoid temptations and sharp reactions.
Lunar days are counted from the new moon: day 1 begins at the new moon, and a cycle has 29 or 30 of them. Tradition gives each day its own character.
Health by lunar tradition
In lunar tradition, extra care goes to the knees, bones, joints, and skin.
On Capricorn days, tradition favors skin care: shaving, hair removal, and a rich cream are said to have a longer-lasting effect.
Short June nights with a full moon are hard on sleep: darken the bedroom and go to bed before midnight.
Go easy on the knees today on stairs and in squats; spread the load.
In June, think of hydration and sun protection: a high-SPF sunscreen and shade at midday. Tick season is in full swing; check yourself after time in grass and woods.
Food by lunar tradition
- Favored today
- Salts and minerals
Capricorn days belong to minerals and salts. Tradition favors home-cooked root vegetables over anything processed. A salt bath in the evening is said to calm both skin and mind.
At the full moon the body is said to absorb everything, including what you would rather it did not: skip heavy meals, alcohol, and second helpings.
June is the month of strawberries, cherries, and the first peas; lettuce and young kohlrabi arrive. Light summer meals go well with fresh herbs.
Reach for seasonal foods that suit the day: kohlrabi, radishes, and lettuce.
Tip of the day: a broth of root vegetables with a pinch of unrefined salt, a simple mineral-rich dish from the pot.
Garden by the moon
- Plant part
- Root
June is the month of growth and the first harvest: strawberries, peas, lettuce, and, late in the month, early potatoes. Sow more beans and summer lettuce, and plant out seedlings for the fall harvest: kale, cauliflower, and leeks. Water regularly and mulch.
Tradition keeps freshly dug roots out of the sun; roots lifted at the full moon are said to be at their strongest.
Capricorn days are root days, and in tradition the days for structure in the garden: building beds, paths, and fences. Herbalists gather herbs for the bones, joints, and skin on Capricorn days.
Today’s root day favors everything that grows below ground, right now especially early potatoes.
Harvest time: this month belongs to crops such as early potatoes, strawberries, and peas.
Seasonal advice is for the Northern Hemisphere’s temperate zone; south of the equator, swap the seasons. For the best days of the month, see planting by the moon and the lunar hair calendar.
