More Stories But don't worry that it's still light when it reaches its peak - it'll still appear full over the entire night. Why is it called a Flower Moon? The Flower Moon was so-called by Native Americans due to May being the time when flowers started to bloom in the warmer weather. The Royal Museums Greenwich (RMG) website also offers some tips on how to see the full moon and explains what the Flower Moon is. The RMG website says: 'Over time, different cultures have given names to full moons across the lunar calendar. 'Many of the Moon's nicknames have come to us from Native American culture because for their way of life, the cycles of the lunar phases were just as important a method of timekeeping as the longer solar cycle of the year (from which the modern Gregorian calendar is derived).' According to astrologers, the full moon can also encourage 'powerful shifts in relationships and personal growth'. Full moon dates in 2025 In 2025, the UK will experience full moons on the following dates: January 13, February 12, March 14, April 13, May 12, June 11, July 10, August 9, September 7, October 7, November 5, and December 5. How to take a photo of the Flower Moon The RMG states that the basics of taking a picture of the moon remain the same whether you choose to use a phone, compact camera or SLR. Recommended reading: You'll need to go to a location that has an unobstructed view of the moon for several hours. The website adds: 'If you want to focus just on the moon, you'll need a telephoto lens or telescope. 'These aren't necessary if you're trying for more of a landscape photograph, but just remember that if you want to include specific landmarks or features, then you'll need to plan ahead for the best shot.'
