June’s Full Moon & the 18.6 Major Lunar Standstill

As the full moon rises on June 11, 2025, it carries with it a rare cosmic rhythm—the Major Lunar Standstill, a phenomenon in the 18.6-year cycle that shifts the moon’s path to its most extreme positions. This cycle, observed across centuries by astronomers and ancient sky watchers, invites us to reflect on where we stand in the cosmic dance of time. What might this celestial alignment mean for you? How have your own cycles of growth and transformation mirrored the moon’s long journey? With the Sagittarius full moon illuminating the night, you are offered a rare opportunity to pause, observe, and align with a deeper sense of purpose—just as countless others have done before you.

In the Northern Hemisphere

Picture yourself standing outside at dusk on June 11, 2025. The sky deepens into twilight, the full moon rises low in the east, casting a golden or red hue depending on atmospheric conditions. It feels unusually still, as if time slows. This moment is rare—part of an 18.6-year cycle called the major lunar standstill.

As you watch, imagine ancient astronomers and megalithic stone builders from centuries ago also gazing at the same moon during this special cycle. Across generations, eyes have lifted to the sky in wonder. On June 11th, you are part of that story.

As the days approach the summer solstice, the sunlight stretches longer, lingering in the evening sky-are you celebrating this transition? Perhaps a fire, shared feast or fete that is unique to you.

In the Southern Hemisphere

In the Southern Hemisphere, as the winter solstice approaches, the full moon on June 11 will rise high overhead, shining brightly in the crisp night air. Its golden and red hues will cast an ethereal glow, illuminating the landscape below. Unlike the those in the northern hemisphere, where the moon hangs low, here it ascends proudly, commanding the sky.

This rare event, part of the 18.6-year cycle known as the major lunar standstill, is a bridge across time. As you gaze upward, you step into that same celestial rhythm—connected through centuries, united by the same wonder.

Tonight, the sky offers you a moment beyond time. A chance to feel the presence of those who came before, all watching the same moon, high and brilliant above.

The full moon will reach peak illumination on June 11, 2025 at 07:44 GMT.

Aligning with the 18.6-Year Journey

As the Sagittarius full moon rises on June 11, 2025, it marks a rare moment in the 18.6-year cycle of the major lunar standstill. Looking back to 2006, this celestial alignment invites reflection on your journey—offering insight into the patterns shaping your path and an opportunity to consciously set a new course.

Sagittarius, the seeker, calls for adventure, wisdom, and bold transformation. Use this moment to recalibrate:

  • Expand your vision—What dreams from 2006 still resonate?
  • Challenge your beliefs—Are old perspectives limiting your potential?
  • Embrace your truth—What future are you ready to step into?

Like ancient observers tracking the sky, you stand at a crossroads—connected through time, urged to align with growth. The next 18.6 years are yours to shape. 

More about

The Major Lunar Standstill itself is not a single-day event—it spans about two years, with the moon consistently rising and setting at its most extreme positions. The culmination of this cycle happened in January 2025, but its effects are still visible, including the extraordinarily low full moon on June 11.

Out of Office Notice:

Our office will be closed from June 15–23 as we embark on a Starseed Scotland Adventure, exploring the mystical landscapes of Callanish on the Isle of Lewis, Old Town Edinburgh, and Rosslyn Chapel—a site renowned for its powerful ley lines and the ancient forest of Rosslyn Glen.

Rosslyn Chapel is believed to sit atop the Rose Line, an energetic pathway that has long been associated with spiritual resonance and sacred geometry. The surrounding Rosslyn Glen, with its dense woodland and hidden river canyon, has been revered for centuries as a place of deep connection to the earth’s energies.

An adventure awaits our starseeds, filled with history, alignment, and cosmic inspiration. I look forward to supporting our community both abroad and upon return. If you’d like to book a session before or after our travels, please reach out soon.

Wishing you celestial insights until we reconnect.
