Monday 30th March
The Moon rises in the fiery sign of Leo, bringing warmth, vitality, and a focus on fruiting plants in the garden. This is a supportive time for sowing and transplanting fruiting crops — such as tomatoes, chillies, peppers, cucumbers, courgettes, beans, and sweetcorn. At the midpoint of the day, we encounter a brief cosmic interruption as the Moon crosses the ecliptic path of the Sun, forming a descending lunar node. This is considered an unfavourable time for sowing and active gardening, as the natural rhythms are momentarily disrupted. Instead, we can use the middle of the day for planning, observing, or quieter activities, and carry out our practical gardening tasks in the early morning and late afternoon.
