Versatility wins today. Many small tasks go better than one large one. Restlessness is best walked off outdoors.
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.
Seen from the Northern Hemisphere, the Moon is near the highest turn of its monthly path across the sky, where it switches from climbing to descending.
Element of the day

- Air
- Day character
- Clear and windy
A light, airy day in Gemini brings a fresh breeze; news and ideas travel fast.
Lunar day 7
The seventh lunar day supports communication and errands; say out loud what you think, but weigh your words.
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 shoulders, arms, hands, and lungs.
Under a waxing Moon, care for the hands and shoulders counts for more: a rich hand cream and slow shoulder rolls.
Smokers find Gemini days harder, tradition says, and breathing exercises are the day’s classic practice. Light exercise for the arms and shoulders suits the day; tradition skips the heavy weights.
The lungs appreciate a breathing exercise: in for four counts, out for eight, five minutes at an open window.
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
- Fats and oils
Gemini days are the days of fats and oils in lunar tradition. Nuts, seeds, avocado, olive oil, and oily fish are the day’s focus. A small amount of something sharp, such as a teaspoon of mustard or horseradish, is the traditional companion. Fried and greasy food, on the other hand, is said to sit heavily even in a small portion.
With the Moon waxing, tradition favors good fats in modest amounts.
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: watercress, seeds, and cold-pressed oils.
Tip of the day: a spoonful of good cold-pressed oil, flaxseed or olive, on a salad; tradition says the body makes the best use of fats today.
Garden by the moon
- Plant part
- Flower
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.
Plant and water the flowers you want to bloom. A good day to gather herb flowers: pick them fully open, in sun and warmth, around noon.
Gemini days are flower days: tradition points to the ornamental beds, to broccoli and cauliflower, and to anything you want to bloom.
Under a waxing Moon, tradition says, the parts of plants above ground take the lead.
Sow and plant everything that bears above ground.
On this month’s list for the waxing Moon: tomatoes, broccoli, and kohlrabi.
On flower days the ornamental beds and the flowering vegetables take their turn: broccoli.
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.
