Monday 13th April
The Moon rises in Capricorn for the final time this month before transitioning into the air constellation of Aquarius, where lighter, more subtle forces begin to be mediated and gently brought down to Earth, influencing both nature and ourselves. In the garden, this is a beautiful time to tend to flowers and to the honey bees. Now arising from their winter torpor, the bees move out into the fields of dandelion, gathering nectar and pollen with quiet devotion. The pollen, rich in protein, is transformed into bee bread and, together with honey, nourishes the developing life within the hive.
