New Delhi, July 9 -- The July's Full Moon or the Buck moon will set the night sky aglow, hitting its peak on July 11 at 2:08 am IST. This celestial event will be visible throughout India, weather permitting, and can be observed with the naked eye, especially after moonrise around 7:42 pm IST on July 10.

In India, the Buck Moon coincides with Guru Purnima, a significant spiritual occasion honouring teachers, mentors, and wisdom. This alignment adds a layer of cultural importance, blending the natural beauty of the full moon with themes of gratitude and reflection.
