New Moon in Pisces | Planting Moon Energy Reading

IMG_8318.JPG

This New Moon in Pisces takes place on the 6th of March. Pisces tends to increase our intuition and emotions as well as heighten our empathic abilities!

Emotions tend to predominate over logic and common sense, but it’s a great time to use your imagination to visualise and create your future!

Uranus moves into Taurus on the 6th of this month. Because Uranus is a slow moving planet, it’s lessons are big and hold lasting is effects. Uranus will be in Taurus until 2026.

New insights and big shifts are on their way to you with this planetary change. Uranus moving into Taurus might bring us new lessons that highlight our sense of security and home.

Uranus is a planet of change, while Taurus loves security and feelings of safety. Remember to be adaptable and as fluid as possible since these are somewhat opposing energies. Taurus IS about growth, but it relishes in organic and authentic growth, so go with the flow if you want to see change.

Druidry for the 21st Century: Pandora’s Box and Tools for the Future

Dana's avatarThe Druid's Garden

The story of Pandora’s box has always been a favorite of mine, ever since I was little.  Pandora was so curious. She just had to open the box. She just had to. And when she did, she let out all the bad things in the world: suffering, pain, war, famine, pestilence, betrayal….but she also let out one good thing: she let out hope.

It seems that more and more reports come out, more and more news comes out, and the longer that things go on, we keep being surrounded by all the bad things. Ten or fifteen years ago, perhaps these things could be ignored.  But today, I don’t think there is any more time for that. The reports, like the recent National Climate Assessment, don’t often…

As spring approaches we get anxious to start planting our garden!  In March, we have time to plan which lavenders we want to add or replace in our garden.  In late March and into April and May, after the weather and the ground have warmed up, we can usually tell which lavenders need to be replaced. After we do spring garden pruning and clean up, we have a better idea of how much space we have to plant.  There are also more lavender plants available from local growers at that time of the year.
English lavenders, Lavandula angustifolia cultivars, are the hardiest lavender plants to grow, but eventually, they do need to be replaced with new plants.  Some lavender plants that are over 10 to 15 years old are very woody and parts of these plants may no longer produce new leaves or flowers. As long as a garden space…
