Flower Full Moon in May

May 23rd at 9:53am EDT

The fifth full moon of the year, is known as the Flower Moon according to the teachings of the 13 Grandmother Moons and the Ontario Native Literacy Coalition where the naming of the moons also has a cultural teaching that explains the cycle of life and nature within the Indigenous cultures of Turtle Island.

The moon will reach its peak 9:53 a.m. EDT.

During the Flower Moon, all plants display their spirit sides for all the world to see. This life-giving energy is one the most powerful healing medicines on Mother Earth. During this moon, we are encouraged to explore our spiritual essences.
