Wind Moon April 20!

Wednesday April 16, 2008
Spring is well underway, and the soggy chill of March is past. Now that April's here, it's still soggy in a lot of places, but there's hope yet, because as the saying goes, those April showers will bring us some blooms and blossoms in May. This month's full moon is the aptly named Wind Moon, although in some traditions it's also called the Seed Moon. It's a time to welcome new beginnings, and do magic related to conceiving new ideas and projects. What do you want to see taking root and growing in your life?

This month's correspondences include gemstones such as quartz and angelite, as well as a variety of herbs -- dogwood, fennel and dill. Bright colors are celebrated with this full moon, and it's a time to honor deities like Venus and Ishtar, Herne and Tawaret. The Wind Moon is closely tied to the element of air, and it's easy to see why!

Read up on how to celebrate this blustery, gusty moon phase here:

Uh…nope, not here. Snowed yesterday and is about 32 degrees this morning. Anything blossoming and making May-ish is being frosted!
