Full Moon June 2023 Astrology
Sun opposite Moon brings your home, family, and intimate relationships into sharper focus for the following two weeks of this moon phase. Opposing forces, such as work versus home or what you need versus what you want, create inner tension and external pressures, leading to conflict and crises that drain your energy.
The lunar qualities of emotions and instincts peak at a Full Moon. So use your increased emotional strength and intuition to overcome any relationship challenges. Subconscious awareness allows for an honest and balanced look at your relationships, and you will see any relationship dynamics or negative feelings causing disharmony.
Full Moon trine Mars brings stronger feelings and subconscious attraction. You will be more in touch with your passionate desires and can trust your intuition and act on your instincts. Extra courage and initiative help you succeed in fulfilling your sensual desires for pleasure and enjoyment, especially in relationships.
You can be more direct and assertive when following your emotional impulses and obsession. This June’s Full Moon energy is strongly attractive but also harmonious and relaxed. So you will not appear arrogant or rude but be admired for your honesty and sincerity. You can fight for your rights, stand up for yourself and defend your family.
The Constellations
The Full Moon of June 2023 is in the Sign of Sagittarius. But as the star map below shows, it is located in the Constellation Scorpius. This discrepancy is due to the precession of the equinoxes.
Over the last 2000 years, the Constellations have moved nearly 30° out of alignment with the Signs. The Zodiac was invented only as a measuring device (see the ecliptic line below). Astrologers always used the visible constellations and their stars for interpretation.
Looking up at night, you will see the bright red star Antares next to the Full Moon. But astrologically, the distance in longitude of 3°13′ is wide for a conjunction (the maximum orb for Antares is 2°30′.)The list below shows the closest stars to the June 3 Full Moon belonging to the Norma constellation, including a cluster of galaxies called the Norma Cluster and the Great Attractor. The fixed star Alwaid in the northern constellation Draco is also conjunct the Full Moon.
- 10♐05 – Alpha Scorpii, Antares
- 12♐18 – Beta Draconis, Alwaid
- 12♐20 – Kappa Normae
- 12♐23 – Gamma2 Normae
- 12♐24 – Pi Herculis
- 13♐11 – Epsilon Normae
- 13♐18 – Full Moon June 2023
- 13♐51 – Mu Normae
- 14♐13 – Epsilon Apodis
- 14♐17 – The Norma Cluster
The Great Attractor
Constellation Norma, the Level and Square, gives honesty, truthfulness, justice and upright life, with interest in Freemasonry, geometry, surveying, mathematics and architecture. [1]
The Norma Cluster (Abell 3627) is a large supercluster of galaxies located near the center of the Great Attractor, a gravitational attraction in intergalactic space. The Great Attractor is a supercluster that contains our galaxy, the Milky Way, and about 100,000 other galaxies.
The Great Attractor exerts a tremendous gravitational pull. It is the biggest thing known to science, but we cannot see it because it is on the other side of the Milky Way. Yet we can see the Norma Cluster, so astrologically, it is the same as the Great Attractor.
I have only started to research the Great Attractor, but people with it rising in their charts are very attractive and captivating; we want to know about them and hear what they say. For example, Kim Kardashian (0°01′) and Neymar (0°03′) have massive following on social media.
The Great Attractor is a mysterious all-knowing, all-seeing entity somewhat like God. According to Philip Sedgwick, once you focus on it, an inescapable force that pulls you in. [2] The June 2023 Full Moon will focus your attention on it.
Once drawn in, you must know more about it, the meaning of life and issues of rightness and wrongness. Its broad emission lines indicate complex answers where multiple points must be understood. It does not fit with narrow or opinionated views. [2] So like the constellation Norma, it represents the truth.
More Stars
Constellation Hercules, the Kneeling Man, gives strength of character, tenacity and fixity of purpose, an ardent nature and dangerous passions. [1]
Constellation Draco, the Dragon, gives an artistic and emotional but somber nature, a penetrating and analytical mind, much travel and many friends but danger of robbery and accidental poisoning. [1]
Fixed star Alwaid gives loss of property, violence, criminal inclinations and accidents. [1]
With Moon: Blindness, wounds, quarrels, bruises, stabs, blows and kicks from horses. [1]
Full Moon June 2023 Meaning

The central theme of this Full Moon is acting on your instincts to fulfill your passionate desires. There is also a theme of being attracted to truth and honesty, and this applies to finding the truth in any matter and about your feelings and desires.
