The Lunar Week: Vol.3

The waning crescent of the Worm Moon will be seen in the sky until Sunday, April 3rd, when it becomes the New Pink Moon. This lunar appellation refers to wild phlox, also known as moss pink, which flourishes during April.

The general term phlox refers to a large group of flowering plants that comes in a variety of colors, sizes, and blooming patterns. Wild phlox is a dwarf variety, and an excellent ground cover. Profusions of small, pink flowers burst from dense mats of mossy leaves. Dwarf phlox is known to be fairly drought resistant, which is great for very hot and arid regions, and also for occasionally scatterbrained gardeners (like yours truly).


The Lunar Week, Daily

Monday, 28:  Moon in Capricorn.  It's a bit cloudy and drizzly in my area today, but if there's no threat of rain where you are, treat your yard to some organic fertilizer.

Tuesday, 29:  Moon in Aquarius.  I am getting back into an exercise routine that totally derailed last month.  Starting a diet to lose weight today, tomorrow, and Thursday is favored.

Wednesday, 30:  Moon in Aquarius. Feeling bogged down by routine? Join a social group that meets up once a week. You can get to know some new people, learn a new skill, and expand your mind perspective!

Thursday, 31:  Moon in Aquarius.  Start the weekend early; have friends over after work.

Friday, 1:  Moon in Pisces. Do something this evening to indulge your inner dreamer. Catch some live music, or a local theater production.

Saturday, 2:  Moon in Pisces. Give some serious thought to something that has been bothering you, and take some extra time to be objective, even if "the other side" seems completely irrational. What is it that you are doing to perpetuate this problem? Are others also influencing the situation? Make a concerted effort to push any cobwebs out of your brain and take a rational approach. Draw up a Pro/Con list, and see how the two sides stack up. Finish by weighing different courses of action, and highlight the one that seems most beneficial.

Sunday, 3:  New Moon in Aries. Get out the list you made yesterday. Review the course of action you decided was best. Get your head on straight, take a deep breath, and confront that problem with confidence!
