Garden Almanac
Tend flowers, harvest blooms, and seed ornamentals
Air sign moons favor flowering plants and pollination. Good days for cutting flowers, deadheading, and applying natural pest deterrents.
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 heavy watering — air signs prefer lighter moisture.
Zodiac Season: ♎ Libra
The harmonizer — seeking balance at the autumn equinox
The autumn equinox restores balance — equal day and night. Libra season is about harmony, relationship, and aesthetic awareness. As leaves turn, there's a bittersweet beauty to the world. Partnership and justice take center stage.
Arrives with the autumn equinox — light and dark in balance. Brain imaging studies show working memory peaks near this equinox, suggesting a cognitive sharpening as winter approaches.
