May’s full Moon is known as the Flower Moon. It signifies the wildflowers that bloom in May. This includes wild iris, sundrops, marsh marigold, violets and more that are found around here.
The month of May also marked a period of increased fertility and the warming days that made it safer to bear young. For that reason it is sometimes called the Mother’s Moon. Other names include the Corn Planting Moon and Milk Moon.
Fingers-crossed for clear viewing conditions tonight.
