The Moon in the zodiac: Gemini

The Moon in Gemini: a air sign, a flower day in the gardeners' tradition; a barren sign. The sign changes every two to three days; what each means in the garden is on the planting calendar.

An air sign, barren. Flower day, and a day for cutting flowers, weeding and thinning; sowing is put off.
