The sky today

Moon in Aquarius · waxing Moon

It is Libra season; on 23 October the Sun moves into Scorpio. The Moon is in Aquarius today. The mood of the day: you want some peace and a little distance from everyone. The old almanac rule says to sow annual flowers and the crops that bear above ground, such as beans, sweet corn and tomatoes, while the Moon is waxing, from new moon to full. In the old almanacs, Aquarius is counted as a barren sign.

Moon square Mercury

At the Moon is at odds with Mercury: A message goes astray today or arrives garbled. Better to ask again.

Saying of the day

“Full Moon in October without frost, no frost till full Moon in November.” An old rule that if the October full moon passed without frost, there would be no frost until the November full moon.
