Tuesday 13th January
With the Moon in Libra all day, the garden is held in a gesture of light, balance, and orientation. Libra, a sign of light, lifts us away from heaviness and toward clarity and proportion. As the Moon reaches apogee — its furthest point from the Earth — there is an intensification of light forces. In biodynamic understanding, apogee can overrule the qualities of a constellation; in this case, it further strengthens Libra’s capacity for light rather than diminishing it. This creates a day less suited to sowing or planting and more supportive of observation, planning, and inward preparation. In mid-winter, when the garden continues its inward descent, this heightened light does not call for action, but for orientation — clarifying intentions, shaping ideas, and finding balance before future work takes form at the right time.
