July’s full moon in Capricorn is rising. This is the second Capricorn full moon we are experiencing this summer. The first one was on June 21. Leap year caused two full moons within the same sign, a rarity.
July’s lunation was nicknamed the Buck Moon by some Native American tribes because it rises during the season in which deer grow their antlers.
