Each year brings a total of 12 or 13 full moons. Of those, usually three or maybe even four qualify as super moons, which applies to moons that are within 90% or greater of the moon’s mean closest approach to earth. This June, the last super moon of the year happens to be the Strawberry Moon. Get ready, South Carolina, because it’s a doozy.
The Algonquin tribes are credited with coining the name Strawberry Moon — which technically is the last full moon in any June.
Of course, moon gazers all over South Carolina will be able to enjoy it through the night and into the morning hours of June 25th (a Friday, for those keeping score).
