On June 20, 2016, for the first time in 50 years the strawberry moon will coincide with the summer solstice in the northern hemisphere.

^[2]The last time this happened was during the 'summer of love' in 1967.

^[1]What this means is that the moon will be directly opposite of the sun in every way.

The next time the summer solstice and the strawberry moon will fall on the same day will be June 21, 2062, making this a likely once in a lifetime event for many.
