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: Prune and harvest
Energy moves downward into roots. Good for pruning, harvesting root crops, and preserving. Plant perennials and bulbs. Reduce watering.
Avoid: Avoid transplanting — fire signs can stress tender roots.
Zodiac Season: ♐ Sagittarius
The seeker — expansive vision as the year's light wanes
The last fire sign before the solstice dark. Sagittarius season carries an expansive, philosophical energy — seeking meaning as the year winds down. In nature, animals migrate. In tradition, this is the season of vision, adventure, and higher truth.
Late autumn approaching the winter solstice. The shortest days trigger shifts in seasonal gene expression — immune activity intensifies as the body prepares for winter.
The Cold Moon
The longest nights of the year. Winter's grip tightens. Across traditions, this moon invites surrender to darkness, trust in the returning light, and the quiet cultivation of inner warmth until the solstice tips the balance.
