Monday 4th May
Our gracious Moon continues to wane from its culmination on May Day. In its rhythm, it is now at its furthest point from the Earth, known as apogee. This brings qualities of light, which radiate down towards the Earth. In biodynamic understanding, this light quality can overrule the watery influence of Scorpio, bringing instead the element of air and light. This makes the day more favourable for working with flowers in the garden, including vegetables such as cauliflower, broccoli, and artichoke, which are flowers in their form. We may also tend to the ornamental flowers, meeting the garden where it opens most fully to colour, scent, and the delicate architecture of form.
