The Moon in the zodiac: Pisces
The Moon in Pisces: a water sign, a leaf day in the gardeners' tradition; a fertile sign. The sign changes every two to three days; what each means in the garden is on the planting calendar.
A water sign, fertile. Leaf day: greens, herbs and cabbage; a day for watering and planting out, though roots lifted in Pisces are said to store badly.
