The Buck Moon in Capricorn: Embracing Growth, Strength & Transformation 🌿

By Angel, Founder of AMC Rise and Thrive


Hello beautiful soul 💫

On July 10th, 2025, we welcome the radiant light of the Full Buck Moon, a celestial event rich with symbolism, spiritual meaning, and divine opportunity. This powerful moon phase invites us to pause, reflect, release, and evolve. It’s a sacred checkpoint on our soul’s journey—one that reminds us we are always growing, always rising, always becoming.

The name “Buck Moon” stems from the natural rhythms of the Earth. During this time of year, male deer (bucks) begin to grow new antlers. As they shed the old to make space for the new, we too are called to release what no longer serves us and prepare to embrace our next chapter with strength, grace, and intention.

Let’s dive into the energy of this magical moon and explore how we can harness its wisdom to grow—spiritually, emotionally, and energetically.


🦌 Why It’s Called the Buck Moon

The Full Buck Moon is rooted in nature’s majestic cycles. Each summer, bucks shed their worn antlers and begin to grow new, stronger ones. This sacred process in the animal kingdom mirrors a powerful spiritual truth: rebirth follows release.

We, too, are invited to surrender the outdated versions of ourselves—outgrown habits, beliefs, fears, and energies that dim our light. When we release with purpose, we open ourselves to new wisdom, deeper alignment, and greater strength.

The Buck Moon whispers: You are not who you were. You are growing into someone more powerful, more radiant, and truer to your spirit.


🌱 Growth and Transformation

The energy of this moon is ripe for transformation. As light illuminates the night sky, it also shines upon our inner landscape, highlighting areas that are ready to evolve.

You might feel a nudge to:

  • Let go of relationships that no longer feel nourishing
  • Shift your mindset around self-worth or abundance
  • Create space for something new—creatively, professionally, emotionally

This is a moon of becoming. It asks us to move through our discomfort, trust the process, and step fully into our next level of growth.

Reflect and ask yourself:

  • What am I ready to release once and for all?
  • What beliefs have kept me small?
  • Where am I ready to expand with confidence and grace?

Remember, growth isn’t always loud. Sometimes, it’s the quiet moment when you choose peace over anxiety or when you honor your boundaries instead of people-pleasing. That, too, is transformation.


💪 Strength and Resilience

The Buck Moon is also a cosmic reminder of our inner power. Life may challenge us—but within each of us is a wellspring of resilience, endurance, and quiet strength.

Capricorn’s earthy, grounded energy blends beautifully with the spirit of the Buck Moon, encouraging us to stand tall, stay rooted, and keep rising.

This moon invites you to:

  • Acknowledge your past struggles and celebrate how far you’ve come
  • Remember your ability to rise through adversity
  • Embrace your imperfections as part of your sacred story

Like the buck who regrows stronger antlers every year, you are designed to renew, rebuild, and rise again—each time more aligned with your truth.


🎯 Reaching Goals Under the Capricorn Full Moon

This Buck Moon aligns with Capricorn, a sign known for its structure, ambition, and commitment to growth over time. Capricorn is the mountain goat—slow, steady, persistent, and focused on the summit.

Under this moon, ask yourself:

  • What goals have I made progress on this year?
  • Where can I bring more structure to my dreams?
  • Am I honoring my long-term vision—or just reacting to the moment?

Capricorn encourages discipline and spiritual maturity. It reminds us that progress is powerful, even when it’s slow. Use this moon to reassess your direction and recommit to what matters most.

You don’t need all the answers—you only need the willingness to keep climbing.


🔥 Releasing & Cleansing Rituals

With any full moon, but especially one so deeply rooted in transformation, cleansing and releasing are vital spiritual practices. Think of it as spring cleaning for your soul.

Here are some rituals to work with the Buck Moon energy:

📝 Burn Letter Ritual
Write down what you’re ready to release—old fears, past relationships, limiting patterns. Burn the paper safely under the moonlight and visualize the energy leaving your body.

🛁 Salt Bath Soak
Add Sea salt or Epsom salt to your bath with essential oils (lavender, eucalyptus, or frankincense work beautifully). Light candles and imagine the water washing away all stagnant energy.

🕯Smudging or Smoke Cleansing
Use sage, palo santo, or incense to cleanse your home and aura. Open windows to let old energy out and invite in fresh, high vibrations.

💎 Crystal Charging
Place your crystals under the moonlight to cleanse and recharge them. Great choices for this moon include moonstone (intuition), labradorite (transformation), and hematite (grounding).

These sacred acts support your energetic body and make room for new clarity, joy, and intention.


🌕 Intention Setting & Manifestation

The Buck Moon isn't only about releasing—it’s also about calling in. With the moon at its peak, energy is amplified. It’s a powerful time for manifesting your desires and setting intentions for the months ahead.

🌟 Ways to set intentions:

  • Journaling: Write down what you are ready to receive. Be specific, heartfelt, and bold.
  • Affirmations: Speak your truth into existence. For example: “I am growing stronger every day. I am open to new blessings. I trust my journey.”
  • Vision Boards: Create a collage that reflects your goals and hang it where you’ll see it often.
  • Moon Circle: Gather with others (in-person or virtually) to share intentions and support each other in sacred space.

Speak your desires aloud. Light a candle. Claim your worth. The universe is always listening.


🌿 Reconnect with Nature

The Buck Moon also calls us back to the Earth—our original home, teacher, and healer.

Nature is not separate from us. We are made of the same elements, cycles, and rhythms. Under this moon, make it a point to reconnect.

🌳 Walk barefoot on the grass
🌕 Gaze at the moon and breathe deeply
🔥 Light a fire or candle and meditate outdoors
🍃 Offer gratitude to the trees, animals, and Earth for their wisdom

When we align with nature, we align with our soul. Let the wind, stars, and moonlight remind you of your sacred place in the web of life.


Final Reflections

The Buck Moon in Capricorn is a divine invitation to release, realign, and rise. Just as the buck renews its antlers each year, you are meant to evolve into stronger, more authentic versions of yourself.

You are allowed to shed what no longer fits.
You are worthy of the dreams stirring in your heart.
You are powerful enough to create the life your soul is calling for.

Let this moon be a mirror, showing you how far you've come—and a lantern, lighting the path ahead.

🌕 And don’t forget—the energy of the full moon lasts about three days, so give yourself time. Breathe it in. Recharge your spirit. Cleanse your crystals. Honor the sacred.

With moonlit love,
