MARCH 2010
 
7th      3rd Quarter Moon peaks at 3.45pm.

11th    Mars stands still at 9am. The red planet has been going 'retrograde' through the starscape motion. It will now be going forward again towards Leo

12th    Moon at apogee (farthest from Earth at 252,000 miles) peaks at 10am

15th    New Moon peaks at 9pm

17th            Crescent Moon next to Venus – in the morning both will rise about 5am

20th            Spring Equinox peaks at 5.30pm.

21st    Moon next to the Pleiades all night (Luna visits the seven sisters)

22nd            Saturn is at its closest and brightest it gets tonight when it reaches 'opposition'. Saturn's rings are near edge-on for the next few years  but its still the best thing you can see with a small telescope. Saturn can be found in the constellation Virgo

23rd  1st Quarter Moon peaks at 11:00am

25th    Moon next to Mars in the Beehive Cluster at the centre of the constellation Cancer

28th    Moon at perigee (closest to Earth at 221,000 miles away) peaks at 5am

29th   Moon next to Saturn all night

30th    Full Moon peaks at 2:30am
Traditionally known as the Seed Moon. As the name suggests, it's the time forplanting seeds. For Ancient Britons that meant not only physically but in your plans for the year, emotionally and spiritually. It is this Moon nearest the Spring Equinox which truly heralds the beginning of springtime

Biodynamic Lunar Constellation info for March

These are the constellations the Moon can be seen in front of for the whole of March - it basically moves in front of a different constellation every 2.5 days

Hope it makes sense laid out this way - it's the only way i could get all the symbols in a line - there's also a leaf, root, fruit, flower conversion table right at the bottom - the only way to print it out is copy it into a word document then grab all the text and change the letter colour from white to black - i'm sure i'll find an easier way to present it soon, but at least its here eh?

you can buy biodynamic calendars for just £5 here

ive just moved even closer to the Greenwich meridian line! (less than 10" off), so all the times here are given in Greenwhich Mean Time - the Moon's phase and the constellation it's passing in front of doesn't change depending on where you are in the world, so all you have to do is convert the GMT into your time zone
