Named for the explosion of blooms in May, this full moon is more than just an astronomical phenomenon. It marks a turning point where we pause to reflect on our own growth.
After the silence of winter and the cautious awakening of spring, this is the time when everything goes into full swing. Not only in nature, but also in ourselves. New projects take shape, ideas become reality and energy flows freely again. The Flower Moon is a reminder that life moves in cycles - sometimes still, sometimes exuberant.
