Lunar Guidance
Refine, don't reinvent. You're close. This is the phase for editing, polishing, and trusting the process. The temptation to start over is a trap — keep going.
Ritual: Refinement
Review your work so far. What needs adjusting? What can you let go of? Polish what exists rather than adding more. Trust that you've done enough.
Garden Almanac
Water, transplant, and tend leafy greens
Water sign moons are the most fertile planting days. Excellent for watering, irrigating, and transplanting seedlings. Moisture is absorbed more readily.
Phase Action: Feed and nurture
Apply fertilizer and compost tea. Water deeply. The moon's increasing light supports photosynthesis and leaf growth. Excellent for foliar feeding.
Avoid: Avoid harvesting herbs for drying — moisture content is too high.
Zodiac Season: ♓ Pisces

The last sign — the dream before the new beginning. Pisces season is dissolution: ice melts, boundaries blur, and the psyche opens to intuition and imagination. In tradition, this is the season of surrender, compassion, and spiritual depth.
Late winter into the spring equinox approach. As photoperiod increases, serotonin levels begin rising and melatonin recedes — the biological precursor to spring's awakening.
The Worm Moon
As temperatures warm, earthworm casts appear in thawing ground — the first sign of spring's return. The Ojibwe named it for the sap that begins to flow in maple trees, marking sugaring season.
