Friday 10th April
The Moon continues its ascent through Sagittarius, moving from west to east. In its sidereal rhythm, it rises higher in the sky with each passing day over the coming two weeks, supporting the growth of plants from above the soil. However, the day becomes less favourable as Mercury in Pisces crosses the ecliptic on an ascending node. This can bring a subtle sense of cosmic confusion, making it a less ideal time for working directly with plants and soil. Instead, we might turn our attention towards preparation. It is a good moment to begin gathering the materials needed for the biodynamic cow horn silica preparation (501). Quartz crystals can be sourced and finely ground into a powder, then mixed with water and placed into cow horns. These are buried in the earth over the summer months, where they gradually undergo their transformation.
