Flower Moon in Sagittarius: Find out what the May 2024 full moon means all zodiac signs

The full moon will be fully illuminated at 9:53 pm (MYT) on 23 May 2024. This lunar event will occur in the adventurous fire sign of Sagittarius with the sun in the flirty and playful air sign of Gemini. So what’s in store for the sun signs during this celestial event? Know all about the May full moon and its thrilling effects on the zodiac signs.

Why is May’s full moon called the Flower Moon?

The spiritual and literal meaning of the same is pretty simplistic. After the April Pink Moon, the May full moon marks the start of summer and the end of spring. This celebrates the weather transition, which witnesses the blooming of flowers in a myriad of colours during this period mostly in North America.

This full moon inspires all things joyful and fertile during this period, which reminds all the zodiacs to feel alive, travel and cut loose. Other names for this moon are Harvest Moon, Frog Moon and Planting Moon.
