Friday 12th December
Today the Moon transitions from the fiery constellation of Leo into the earthy constellation of Virgo, shifting the mood from expression to attentiveness and care for the land. This makes the afternoon especially favourable for applying BD 500. BD 500, the horn-manure preparation, is created by fermenting cow manure in a cow horn through the winter; when stirred and sprayed onto the soil, it deepens root growth, strengthens soil structure, and awakens microbial life. With the Moon in Virgo, these grounding qualities are particularly receptive, and the act of applying BD 500 becomes a quiet gesture of aligning the farm organism with the deeper rhythms of the earth.
