This is the last full moon of winter – appearing full from 8th March but officially peaking on Monday 9th March.The Old Farmer’s Almanac says this full moon will be the first of three supermoons in 2020. The other two will occur in April and May.
Its name of Worm Moon is derived from native tribes in North and East America – this is when the earthworms start to emerge after the frozen winter earth and their casts begin to be seen again. Among its other names are Crow Moon, Crust Moon, Lantern Moon, Sap Moon, Seed Moon and Sugar Moon.
Supermoons occur when a full moon coincides with the moon being at the closest point to the earth on its elliptical orbital journey around our planet.
“The March full moon is about the potential of a seed. Literally for gardeners and figuratively on personal level. this is a time of balance between light and dark. a time to clear away clutter, old growth and negativity to make room for new growth, inspiration and abundance”
A time for Spring-cleaning – cleansing your spirit, clearing out drawers, cupboards and paperwork and making space for the new. A time to celebrate the re-emergence of life and that one is alive to welcome in another year.
“Behold my friends, the Spring has come the earth has gladly received the embraces of the sun and we shall soon see the results of their love.”
