Each full moon carries its own unique energy, but few captivate the soul quite like the Pink Moon. Despite its name, the Pink Moon doesn’t actually glow pink in the sky. Instead, the name originates from the blooming of wild ground phlox, one of the first vibrant flowers to blossom in spring. Native American tribes, as well as early colonial settlers, named this moon after the stunning pink hues blanketing the ground during this time of year.
