The appetite for something new is stronger than usual. The mind runs at full speed while the body asks for movement rather than a chair.
Waxing crescent
A crescent of the Moon is lit, and it grows a little each evening. Look for it in the western sky after sunset. In lunar tradition, the waxing Moon stands for building up: intake, growth, and new efforts all trend upward.
On its monthly path across the sky, the Moon is now climbing: seen from the Northern Hemisphere, each day it crosses the sky a little higher than the day before. In planting tradition, the ascending Moon is the time of rising sap—a time for grafting and for harvesting fruit meant to stay fresh.
Element of the day
- Element
- Fire
- Day character
- Warm
A warm fire day in Aries brings a burst of drive. Pace yourself and spread the effort across the day.
Lunar day 3
The third lunar day brings extra energy: it suits active movement and bolder steps.
Lunar days are counted from the new moon: day 1 begins at the new moon, and a cycle has 29 or 30 of them. Tradition gives each day its own character.
Health by lunar tradition
In lunar tradition, extra care goes to the head, brain, eyes, and nose.
With the Moon waxing, tradition favors care and strengthening for the head and eyes rather than strain: a shorter screen day, more daylight, and a walk in fresh air.
Aries days belong to the head. Simple eye exercises, a scalp massage with the fingertips, and a splash of cold water on the hands afterward are the classic routine.
Keep a glass of water within reach today; a dull headache often turns out to be simple thirst.
The change of season leaves many people tired; spend time outdoors and get plenty of daylight. Allergy season begins with the first tree pollen.
Food by lunar tradition
- Favored today
- Protein and fruit
On Aries days, lunar tradition puts protein and fruit at the top of the table. A meal rich in protein can feel especially satisfying today, yet a sensitive stomach may find even a small portion heavy.
With the Moon waxing, tradition favors a hearty, balanced plate.
As the Moon begins to wax, lunar lore says the body switches to storing, so what you eat matters more.
March brings the first spring greens: nettle, wild garlic, and watercress. They are the traditional spring tonic after winter; add them to soups and spreads.
Reach for seasonal foods that suit the day: eggs, cottage cheese, and the first spring herbs.
Tip of the day: a bean spread or a lentil soup makes a filling meal of plant protein.
Garden by the moon
- Plant part
- Fruit
March opens the sowing season: in the greenhouse or cold frame sow lettuce, radishes, and kohlrabi, and late in the month carrots, peas, and spinach outdoors where the soil has thawed. Tomato seedlings continue indoors. Prune currants and gooseberries, and prepare the beds.
Fruit picked today is especially juicy and flavorful, tradition says, but it is meant for eating right away.
Aries days are fruit days in the planting-by-the-signs tradition: tomatoes, peppers, squash, beans, and the fruit trees get the attention.
Under a waxing Moon, tradition says, the parts of plants above ground take the lead.
Sow and plant everything that bears above ground.
The waxing Moon favors the parts of plants above ground; now is the time for broccoli, kohlrabi, and peas.
On fruit days everything that bears fruit asks for attention: tomatoes and peas.
Seasonal advice is for the Northern Hemisphere’s temperate zone; south of the equator, swap the seasons. For the best days of the month, see planting by the moon and the lunar hair calendar.
