New Moon and its influence on herbs
Today the New Moon is rising - a new beginning and the influence on herbs
🌑Herbs of the New and growing Crescent Moon are
excellent for most any remedy-making endeavour as the power of the brew will
grow with the Moon’s waxing. Remedies such as stimulating brews, warming
bitters, energising nerviness, restoratives, alternatives, and remedies for new
beginnings, for children, and to jump start vitality are especially auspicious.
🌑Traditionally, the New Moon is a time of hot
and moist herbs. The tradition I am referring to is Greek medicine with its
four element system of earth, air, fire, and water and its corresponding
qualities (or energies) of cold, dry, hot, and moist. The Moon was linked to
the seasons of the solar year. The New Moon, representing a time of birth,
youth, and vigour, straddled the season of spring into summer which moved from
the time of water (represented in the west as the time of spring) to the time
of fire (represented in the south as the time of summer).
