Across the UK, June temperatures average a daily high of 19 degrees Celsius (65 degrees Fahrenheit) and a low of 10°C (49°F), but on some days, they can reach much higher temperatures.
The day temperature in June averages 22°C in Florianopolis, Brazil, technically making it one of the coldest months in the Rio de Janeiro area — with only July, with its 21°C average, is cooler. The mercury drops to an average low of 19°C overnight, but climbs to a very pleasant average high of 25°C in the afternoon
June is the sixth month of the year in the Julian and Gregorian calendars, the second of four months to have a length of 30 days, and the third of five months to have a length of less than 31 days.
In the seventeenth century, the Latin name for the sixth month crept into English, Iūnius, meaning “sacred to Juno,” the Roman goddess. ......... In fact, summer weddings are still very popular, and they may have started because of the blessing that this goddess bestowed on those wed in her sacred month.

June is one of only two months that has three birthstones associated with it, giving the lucky people born in June a choice of gemstones between pearl, alexandrite, and moonstone. Pearls have been wildly popular in jewellery for centuries because of their natural beauty. Alexandrite gemstones are extremely rare and desirable since they change colour based on the lighting. The meaning of moonstone is in its energy — a nourishing, sensual, deeply feminine energy that knows how to heal and bring you back to wholeness. It is the stone of the Mother moon, deep healing waters, and sacred feminine energies.
