An Invitation to Join UU Ministry for Earth

Written By Douglas Branson

Join UU Ministry for Earth to ground, re-center, and sustain ourselves for the work of climate justice. There are readings, a short reflection, time for individual contemplation, and sharing in small groups.

We will meet on the Sunday evening closest to each full moon at 8pm ET/5pm PT.

  • Sunday, May 3—Flower Moon (flowers blooming)

  • Sunday, May 31—Blue Moon (rare, as “once in a blue moon” — two full moons in the same month)

  • Sunday, June 28—Strawberry Moon (strawberry harvesting)

  • Sunday, July 26—Buck Moon (Deer antler growth, orange or red in color)

  • Sunday, August 30—Sturgeon Moon (Aug 28, Partial lunar eclipse, when sturgeons are most easily caught in the Great Lakes)

  • Sunday, September 27—Harvest Moon (Sep 26, Partial lunar eclipse, Supermoon, lighting the fields for farmers to harvest, orange, yellow or red in color)

  • Sunday, October 25—Blood Moon (passes through Earth’s shadow, red in color)

  • Sunday, November 22—Frost Moon (Nov 24, Supermoon, beginning of winter)

  • Monday, December 21—Cold Moon (Dec 24, Supermoon, just before Solstice and onset of coldest time of the year)

*A supermoon occurs when a full moon coincides with the moon's closest approach to Earth (perigee), making it appear  larger and brighter than a typical full moon
