The Strawberry Full Moon in Capricorn Will Help You Build the Future of Your Dreams
The full moon in Capricorn always coincides with a moment of recognition and accomplishment. This is an aligned time to celebrate yourself and how far you’ve come. You may also experience an epiphany of sorts regarding your life path. Do the goals you once had still feel fulfilling and exciting? You may shed illusions about your career or even the expectations others have for you. Now is time to prioritize what you truly want to be remembered for and the work you’d like to contribute to the world.
Under these moonbeams, you may learn more information, experience a perspective shift, or feel ready to make an important decision.
As a cardinal earth sign, Capricorn is about initiating and building. Ruled by Saturn, the planet associated with time, Capricorn is also connected with history and tradition, and asks us to reflect on the environment we’re living in and the systems and structures that are in place. What parts of these systems are corroded and could benefit from some renovation? This is a great time to consider how you can take dedicated and consistent action to make an impact and work to build an upgraded world. Saturn also has to do with limits, commitment, and boundaries, and this full moon may grant you an opportunity to set some new expectations with the important people in your life or reconsider who and what you are currently committed to.
This full moon also reactivates themes and topics that emerged under the new moon in Capricorn on January 11. Think about what commitments you were making and the boundaries you set. Some goals you set for yourself at the start of the year may manifest under this full moon, or shine a light on what step you should take next.
When is the next full moon in Capricorn?
The full moon in Capricorn, aka this year’s strawberry full moon, perfects at 9:08 p.m. EDT on June 21, 2024. But we’ll also have a second full moon in Capricorn on July 21—a pretty rare cosmic occurrence— adding another layer to this story.
What is the astrological meaning of a full moon?
When a full moon occurs, the sun and the moon are on opposite sides of the Earth, and also sit in opposite zodiac signs. The moon appears at its brightest, which is why astrologers associate this part of the moon’s cycle with illuminating topics or pieces of information that were previously obscured.
A full moon also marks the halfway point of the monthly lunar cycle. In astrology, it symbolizes a turning point, moment of culmination or celebration, or point of release and letting go. While a new moon is a time to set new intentions, a full moon is typically associated with those intentions materializing.
What can you expect from the June 2024 full moon in Capricorn?
This year we’re gifted with not one, but two full moons in Capricorn. The first full moon in Capricorn takes place on June 21st at 1 degree of Capricorn. On July 21, there will be another full moon in Capricorn at 29 degrees, the final degree before changing zodiac signs. This first full moon is an opportunity to look into our own futures, as we witness clues and themes that will come up once again in a month’s time.
June’s full moon in Capricorn sits across the sky from both Mercury in Cancer and Venus in Cancer, highlighting themes that have to do with communication and relationships. The full moon will put a spotlight on news, topics, and conversations that unfolded on or near June 17, when Mercury and Venus met at the same point in the sky. Under these moonbeams, you may learn more information, experience a perspective shift, or feel ready to make an important decision. This full moon also encourages you to voice your feelings and ask for what makes you feel safe, nourished, and cared for.
With responsible Saturn ruling this full moon, this lunation is even more interesting because it takes place just a few days before Saturn goes retrograde in Pisces on June 29. It’s almost as if you’re experiencing a moment of illumination about a boundary or commitment that you may need to reconsider during Saturn’s retrograde over the next few months. The moon in Capricorn will also form a supportive connection with Mars in Taurus, adding an energizing quality and a bit of grit and determination to whatever you decide to pursue under these moonbeams. On the same day, Mercury in Cancer will also form a gentle connection with Mars in Taurus, leaving you feeling inspired to take action on some of your ideas and giving you a sharp mind when it comes to your discernment and decision-making process.
To get a better idea of how the full moon in Capricorn will affect you in its first act, read on for your sun, moon, and rising signs. Then, pick up a unique self-care practice to help you move through this lunation with a greater sense of ease and balance.
What will the June 2024 full moon in Capricorn bring for every zodiac sign?
Aries
Your star is rising, Aries. The full moon lands in your 10th house of honors, accomplishment, and career. Others are taking a close look at your hard work (in a good way!) and you could receive a raise, promotion, or hard-earned compliments for your efforts. You could reach a milestone with a personal goal, or take on a new title like mentor, sibling, teacher, or parent. This is an important moment to honor your growth and to celebrate how far you’ve come.
Your full moon self-care practice: Set some boundaries between your personal and public lives. Whether it’s work itself or oversharing on social media, you’re feeling a bit worn down. You may crave more private time with your chosen family, especially after all of the recent accomplishments and hard work you’ve put toward your goals.
Taurus
A new perspective emerges under the full moon, Taurus. The full moon activates your ninth house of information, wisdom, travel, and education. An ongoing conversation could reach a climax—maybe you finally land a raise at work. Information that you learn around this time is enlightening to say the least. If you’re in school or learning something new, you may also feel more confident or even ready to share your own knowledge through a speaking or writing opportunity.
Your full moon self-care practice: Speak your mind! Your words are extra potent and impactful under this full moon, and it’s not the time to hold back from sharing your feelings or pitching your wild ideas to anyone who will listen. A lot can change from one conversation, so take a risk!
Gemini
It’s time to survey your closest relationships, Gemini. The full moon moves through your eighth house of intimacy, reciprocity, and shared resources. If there are any relationships, contracts, or obligations in your life that are leaving you depleted, it may be time to set boundaries or step away. An ongoing contract, project, or commitment could also wrap up. This energy also may encourage you to have conversations about shared resources and responsibilities with a partner, roommate, or an important person in your life.

Love is in the air, Cancer! The full moon activates your seventh house of committed partnership and contracts. You might feel like more of your energy is focused on your relationships, whether that is a romantic connection or even with a BFF or roommate. Someone important in your life may need more of your support or move through a transitional time. This also brings turning points to your important ties—maybe you’re ready to finally commit or move in with a lover, or realize it’s time to set clear boundaries to get back on the same page as someone important in your life.
Your full moon self-care practice: Balance is key! Don’t shy away from having uncomfortable conversations today. If you feel like your relationships don’t feel as reciprocal as they once were, acknowledge where you’re falling short or where you’d like more support.
Leo
Making the smallest changes in your daily routine will give you the results you’re looking for, Leo. The full moon in Capricorn illuminates your sixth house of daily habits, lifestyle, responsibility, and lifestyle. You’re feeling inspired to replace old habits with new, healthier ones.

You may also wrap up a commitment or responsibility that’s taken up a bulk of your time, freeing you up to prioritize personal projects and activities you enjoy.
Your full moon self-care practice: Think about the current goal you’re working toward. What habits would that future version of yourself keep on a daily basis? Try to incorporate one new habit every few weeks until you feel like you’re in more of a flow.

If you’re working on a creative project, this could also be a defining moment that marks some progress.
Your full moon self-care practice: Spend some time connecting with your inner child through a guided meditation or visualization. What dreams did they have? Which ones have come true that you can share with them? Allow them to witness how far you’ve come.
Libra
You’re closing out a chapter, Libra! The full moon lands in your fourth house of home, family, and the past. If issues with family members or roommates have been building over time, now is the time to address any repressed feelings. You can wipe the slate clean and find new footing for your important relationships, but you may need to set new expectations along the way. You may also be moving or changing up your living situation in a major way. Emotionally, this is a powerful time to break ties with your past while extending compassion to old versions of yourself.
Your full moon self-care practice: Do a closet purge. Go through your belongings and really ask yourself which items do you wear and which ones are you keeping for sentimental reasons? If there are some clothes that you associate with exes or negative memories from your past, consider donating them and cutting the energetic cord.
Scorpio
You have important news to share, Scorpio. The full moon moves through your third house of communication, learning, siblings, and travel. Conversations feel especially illuminating today, and you could learn news that changes your perspective or plans. This could also mark a moment of proficiency or an opportunity to share your own expertise with a wider audience. You may also consider booking some travel around this time or experience a change in a relationship with your siblings, BFF, or an extended family member.
Your full moon self-care practice: Grab a notebook and consider picking up a daily or weekly journaling practice. Write it all down: your desires, what you’re ready to leave behind, daily affirmations for you to use, and where you want to be in a year from now. Write in the present tense as if you’ve already reached your goals.
Sagittarius
It’s time to log into your bank account, Sagittarius! The full moon lands in your second house of income, resources, and material possessions. You may experience a shift in the way you support yourself, either by accepting a raise or new role at work, or deciding to pursue another job altogether.

You could also finally hear some recognition for a job well done that leaves you feeling more self-assured and confident in your own skills.
Your full moon self-care practice: Make a list of your monthly expenses. Which odds and ends can you eliminate or subscriptions have you forgotten about? Actively engaging and managing your resources will bring more abundance your way.
Capricorn
If you’re feeling sensitive, Capricorn, just know it’s written in the stars. The full moon in Capricorn moves through your first house of identity, new beginnings, personal goals, and vitality. A project or goal you set for yourself could reach a turning point, or maybe you’re realizing which goals you’re ready to reconsider or prioritize. As you evolve, this can also bring changes to your key one-on-one relationships. These moonbeams encourage you to advocate for your own needs and desires in your partnerships and to set healthy boundaries along the way.
Your full moon self-care practice: Try out some mirror work! Every morning before you wake up and go to bed, spend a minute in the mirror complimenting yourself. Nothing is too big or small—just make consistent time for acknowledging your own growth and progress!
Aquarius
Don’t overdo it, Aquarius! The full moon activates your 12th house of closure, rest, and solitude. This full moon delivers a reality check and can leave you feeling physically, emotionally, and mentally exhausted. Now is the time to prioritize rest and set clear boundaries around your availability and free time. You could also feel an urge to kick a stubborn habit that’s overstayed its welcome. Or you may move through a period of grief as you surrender to what you cannot control. Move slowly and know that healing is taking place, even if it doesn’t feel like it at the moment.
Your full moon self-care practice: Carve out some alone time. Light some candles, grab your coziest of blankets, and let yourself unwind in your own energy. This can feel especially restorative right now, and even help you reach new ideas and insights.
Pisces
You’ve got something worth celebrating, Pisces! The full moon illuminates your 11th house of friendships, dreams, and support. A wish you have for yourself might come true, or perhaps you’re starting to see the fruits of your labor. Or maybe you’re just having fun today with friends or attending an exciting social event. New friendships can also grow deeper during this time. You also may realize which friendships you want to continue investing in and which ones don’t feel as supportive as they once did.
Your full moon self-care practice: You’re feeling grateful for everyone who shows up for you day in and day out, so what are some ways you can contribute and support your community around you? Consider volunteering or even donating some of your time or resources to an organization or cause that lights you up.
