Moon Day 9
Starts May 5, 2025 01:41 PM
Ends May 6, 2025 02:44 PM
One of the Worst Days of the Lunar Month. Illusions, deceit, confusion, and dark energies abound.
Lots of young artemisia growing along the GAP. Burning Artemisia as incense is famous for dispelling negative energies. I collected a bunch last year and will burn some today to cleanse my hovel.

Young artemisia. This is not Artemisia vulgaris, the most famous artemisia, but a different species.
It does have the distinctive artemisia smell and works the same way. |
Wild geranium is also in bloom along the GAP.

| Young wild yam. An Interesting Plant. I will be keeping an eye on this one as the season progresses. |

Horsetails. One of the Oldest Plants on the planet.
Various species of horsetails coexisted with dinosaurs and may have been 100 feet tall. |
