The seed beneath the soil
Pink Moon Month — New Moon (dark sky)
Sky Data
Lunar Guidance
This is the void before creation. Set intentions in the dark — they don't need light yet. Write down what you want to call in. Be still. Listen.
Ritual: Intention Setting
Light a single candle in a dark room. Write your intentions for this cycle on paper. Fold it and place it somewhere you'll see daily. The new moon asks: what are you ready to begin?
Garden Almanac
Plant fruit trees, harvest seeds, and tend fruiting crops
Fire sign moons favor fruit and seed production. Ideal for harvesting ripe fruit, saving seeds, and cultivating warmth-loving crops. The energy rises upward.
Phase Action: Plan and prepare
Rest the garden. Plan what to plant. Prepare beds, clean tools, and set intentions for the cycle. A quiet day for the soil.
Avoid: Avoid transplanting — fire signs can stress tender roots.
Zodiac Season: ♈ Aries
The initiator — raw creative fire after the spring equinox
The year begins with Aries — the spark after the spring equinox. In nature, seeds burst through soil. In tradition, this is the season of initiation, courage, and raw creative energy. The impulse to start something new is strongest now.
Arrives with the spring equinox, when daylight overtakes darkness and the biological world reignites after winter dormancy.
The Pink Moon
Named for the wild ground phlox (moss pink), one of the first spring wildflowers. This moon marks the return of fertility to the land. Many traditions begin their new year with the first new moon near the equinox.
