Thursday 31st July
The Moon continues its journey into Virgo for a third day. As we reach the end of July—the height of summer begins to unwind. The garden bursts with outward vitality, while inwardly it is quiet. Butterflies bloom across the beds, and dragonflies in all shades of colour dart along the ponds and rivers. Honeybees continue to forage nectar and pollen to store in their hives, while defending their entrances against hungry wasps. We are in the out-breath of the year, and soon nature will begin its great in-breath—drawing all that outward vitality back into the Earth, back into the soil.
