According to The Old Farmer’s Almanac, July’s full moon is called the Buck Moon. It is named after male deer (bucks) who are busy growing their antlers this time of year. Each summer, these antlers grow bigger and stronger, a fitting symbol of growth and resilience.

The Old Farmer's Almanac, which began publishing full moon names in the 1930s, says some Native American tribes called July's full moon the "buck moon" because it occurs in early summer, when male deer (bucks) typically begin growing new antlers covered in velvety fur.

The Capricorn Full Moon paves the way for the collective, but Capricorn, Aries, Cancer, and Libra zodiac signs really find their power beginning with the July 10, 2025 Full Moon. This energy helps them realize that wherever they aren’t satisfied, they can always start again.
