Lunar Guidance
Your intentions are germinating. Take the first small action. This isn't the time for grand gestures — it's the time for the quiet first step that makes everything else possible.
Ritual: First Action
Choose one intention from the new moon and take a single concrete action toward it today. Even the smallest step counts. Water the seed.
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: Sow seeds above ground
Rising energy favors germination. Plant leafy annuals, herbs, and grains. Sap is beginning to rise — new growth is supported.
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.
