The turning seasons
Thirteen moons,
one slow circle.
Each moon carries a theme on the forefront — an element, an intention, a small handful of herbs, and food that meets the season where it stands.
01
Wolf Moon
1 – 28 Jan
Stillness & Threshold
The year begins quietly — rest, warmth and a slow look at what you want to carry forward.
02
Snow Moon
29 Jan – 25 Feb
Inner Hearth
Deep winter asks you to tend your own fire: nourishing food, long sleep, small comforts.
03
Sap Moon
26 Feb – 25 Mar
Awakening
The first movement under the frost — gentle cleansing and a return of energy.
04
Seed Moon
26 Mar – 22 Apr
Tender Beginnings
Everything you plant now is small and fragile, so this moon is about patience and care.
05
Flower Moon
23 Apr – 20 May
Bloom & Pleasure
Green everywhere — a month for beauty, blossom and letting yourself enjoy things.
06
Strawberry Moon
21 May – 17 Jun
Sweetness & Warmth
Early fruit and long evenings; softness, sweetness and open windows.
07
Sun Moon
18 Jun – 15 Jul
Sun at the Crown
The height of the light — energy, courage and being fully out in the world.
08
Thunder Moon
16 Jul – 12 Aug
Abundance
Heat, storms and plenty; a month of fullness and knowing when to cool down.
09
Grain Moon
13 Aug – 9 Sep
First Harvest
The first gathering — taking stock of what has actually grown for you this year.
10
Harvest Moon
10 Sep – 7 Oct
Equilibrium
Day and night in balance, and a month for putting your own life back in balance too.
11
Blood Moon
8 Oct – 4 Nov
The Veil Thins
The turn inward — remembrance, endings and clearing what no longer belongs.
12
Mourning Moon
5 Nov – 2 Dec
Descent & Rest
Bare branches and early dark; a month to slow right down and let things be quiet.
13
Long Night Moon
3 – 31 Dec
Returning Light
The longest nights, and the small turn back towards the light at the end of them.
