📘 Reading Passage (문장 번호 포함)

① The Strawberry Moon is the name given to the full moon that occurs in June.
② Despite its name, the moon doesn’t turn red or resemble a strawberry.
③ Instead, the term originated from Native American tribes, who used it to mark the time when strawberries were ripe and ready to harvest.

④ Scientifically, the Strawberry Moon is not much different from other full moons.
⑤ However, because it appears lower in the sky during June in the Northern Hemisphere, it can sometimes take on a warm, golden glow, especially near the horizon.
⑥ This optical effect is due to the scattering of light in Earth’s atmosphere.

⑦ Culturally, the Strawberry Moon has become a symbol of renewal, romance, and abundance.
⑧ Many people celebrate this lunar event with festivals, moon-viewing gatherings, or social media posts that highlight the moon’s beauty.
⑨ In some cultures, it is believed to bring good fortune or signal a time of emotional clarity.

⑩ Whether you view it from a scientific or symbolic perspective, the Strawberry Moon reminds us of the deep connections between nature and human tradition.
