Almond blossom, today's New Moon in Pisces - the last New Moon of this astrological year and Winter sun

The last New Moon before the Spring Equinox and Astrological New Year, clouds of almond blossom to brighten your day and some musings on a Portuguese folktale

Briefly: 2 weeks left to enrol on this year’s Ecoliteracy for Educators course which runs from 20th March to 23rd September 2023 /\ 1 month until Ostara - how will you mark this first quarter day in the Wheel of the Year?

Hello lovely people,

I hope this newsletter finds you well on this February New Moon. The dark moon in the dark months can feel like the depths of Winter are never-ending. Although in just a month’s time - in one full cycle of the moon - the Northern hemisphere enters Astrological Spring, also known as the Spring Equinox. Hurrah! And even sooner, on 1st March, Meteorological Spring is upon us. More about the differing dates for Spring in a later newsletter. Firstly I wanted to share some pictures of almond blossom which is bringing me so much joy - and I hope will do the same for you…
