The July 2025 full 'Buck Moon' will give stargazers an opportunity to appreciate several distinct quirks of orbital mechanics at work! For starters, it falls close to the summer solstice, a time of the year when the sun rides particularly high in the sky, while the moon tracks a low path over the southern horizon.

July's full moon, often called the "Buck Moon," will occur on July 10, 2025. In Oklahoma City, it is expected to rise just before 9 p.m and will remain out until 6:12 a.m. on July 11, 2025.
