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.
Last quarter
Half of the Moon is lit again—the mirror of the first quarter. It rises around midnight and stands high in the morning sky. Tradition treats the last quarter as a time to review, release, and clear space before the next cycle.
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.

A warm fire day in Aries brings a burst of drive. Pace yourself and spread the effort across the day.
Lunar day 23
The twenty-third lunar day calls for saving your strength: simple work, modest plans, and household matters.
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 waning, tradition favors rest for the head and eyes. A dark, quiet room for a few minutes does more than usual.
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.
A slow circular massage of the temples and the back of the neck makes a pleasant pause at the desk.
In June, think of hydration and sun protection: a high-SPF sunscreen and shade at midday. Tick season is in full swing; check yourself after time in grass and woods.
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 waning, tradition favors lighter protein: fish, eggs, and legumes rather than a large roast.
In the last quarter, the body is said to shed water more easily. Bitter and diuretic foods are the traditional helpers: chicory, celery, and parsley.
June is the month of strawberries, cherries, and the first peas; lettuce and young kohlrabi arrive. Light summer meals go well with fresh herbs.
Reach for seasonal foods that suit the day: cherries, strawberries, and peas with egg.
Tip of the day: notice how you feel after meat; on a protein day the body says clearly how much it can take.
Garden by the moon
- Plant part
- Fruit
June is the month of growth and the first harvest: strawberries, peas, lettuce, and, late in the month, early potatoes. Sow more beans and summer lettuce, and plant out seedlings for the fall harvest: kale, cauliflower, and leeks. Water regularly and mulch.
In the herb-gathering tradition, Aries days are for herbs meant for the heart and circulation.
Fruit picked today is said to keep well in storage. A good day to spread compost.
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 waning Moon, tradition says, the parts of plants below ground take the lead.
Sow and plant everything that bears below ground.
Transplant seedlings and prune trees and shrubs.
A fruit day is made for fruiting vegetables and fruit, right now especially peas, beans, and strawberries.
Harvest time: this month belongs to crops such as early potatoes, strawberries, and peas.
