At , the Moon moves into Aries.
Pisces days wake the imagination and soften the edges. Intuition leads better than logic, and others’ needs come first. Keep a boundary or two.
Waxing gibbous
More than half of the Moon is lit, and the disk fills out night by night toward the full moon. It dominates the late-evening sky. In lunar tradition, the days before a full moon are the peak of the building phase, when projects and preparations come to a head.
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.

- Wet
A wet water day in Pisces is gentle and slow, suited to reflection and unhurried work.
Lunar day 10
The tenth lunar day is a family day: time for home, traditions, and family ties.
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 feet, soles, and toes.
Under a waxing Moon, care for the feet counts for more, starting with a rich cream for the heels.
Pisces days belong to the feet. A foot massage or acupressure on the soles is the day’s classic practice, tradition says.
The day’s foot massage needs only five minutes before sleep and a drop of oil.
December is hard on sleep and digestion: keep bedtimes regular, even between holiday parties. Balance dry indoor heat with fresh air and fluids.
Food by lunar tradition
- Favored today
- Carbohydrates and starches
Pisces days are starch days. Potatoes, rice, grains, and bread are said to nourish well today, and lettuce is said to be at its juiciest and tastiest. Keep portions modest if bloating is a familiar guest.
With the Moon waxing, a bowl of rice or potatoes satisfies, tradition says.
Before the full moon, tradition holds, food nourishes most: an ideal time to top up minerals and vitamins.
December offers the winter classics: cabbage, beets, dried fruit, nuts, and citrus for vitamin C. Between holiday feasts, give the body lighter days too.
Reach for seasonal foods that suit the day: potatoes, porridge, and whole-grain bread.
Tip of the day: baked potatoes in their skins make a full meal today; a yogurt dip and vegetables are enough.
Garden by the moon
- Plant part
- Leaf
December lets the soil rest: beds covered with leaves or evergreen boughs come through winter better. Check stored produce and tools, and keep the bird feeders full. Cress grows on the windowsill, and next year’s bed plan grows in the warmth of the house.
Pisces days are leaf days: tradition favors sowing and planting everything grown for its leaves, and generous watering. Herbalists gather leaves on Pisces days too, though tradition rates Cancer and Scorpio days higher.
Rootstocks stored in the cellar can be bench-grafted now.
In winter, move lunar gardening indoors: under a waxing Moon, windowsill sowings are said to do well, and cress, sprouts, and potted herbs to grow faster.
On leaf days the leafy vegetables and herbs ask for attention: cress and Brussels sprouts.
Harvest time: this month belongs to crops such as Brussels sprouts.
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.
