The 15th marks this month's full moon. July's full moon was called the Buck Moon by Native Americans of the Northeast and Great Lakes because at this time of the year, the new antlers of the buck deer begin to appear. It has also been called the Thunder Moon because of the thunderstorms common during the summer.
