Once each summer, the moon draws close enough to Earth that its presence in the sky becomes undeniable — larger, brighter, and more insistent than on ordinary nights. This July, that moment arrives with the Buck Moon, a supermoon rooted in both celestial mechanics and centuries of human seasonal memory. Named by Native American and colonial traditions for the antlers male deer grow in July, it reminds us that the sky has long served as humanity's calendar, its rhythms woven into the names we give the dark.
