phenomenon that has not occurred in 68 years: the Strawberry Moon. It happens when the summer solstice and the Full Moon coincide. June 20th is the longest day of the year, with 17 hours of sunlight and this year it is followed by a bright full moon

It was called the Strawberry Moon by the Algonquin tribes of North America who used it as an indication that it was strawberry picking season. It is a rare event, as the sun sits high in the sky, the moon hovers close to the horizon. This natural phenomenon pushes light through thick, humid air, which results in an amber-colored moon.
