BPAL Planting Moon Update 4/22

I won't be reviewing planting moon (much too earthy for me) but I will have the single note & lunar eclipse.

PLANTING MOON 2013
As is the garden such is the gardener,
A man's nature runs either to herbs or to weeds. 
- Francis Bacon

This Full Moon marks a time for new growth, both within nature and within our spirits. It is a time of fertility and fruitfulness, for sowing seeds to ensure blessings and bounty later in the year.

The scent of Planting Moon is that of summer squashes, pole beans, kohlrabi, tomato leaves, peppery arugula, upturned earth, and sun-warmed herbs. 

LUNAR ECLIPSE: APRIL 2013
Luna's lovely, pale face crowned by a sliver of umbral shadow and veiled by penumbral shadow: white musk, mugwort, iris, white tea, and silvered yarrow with black amber, Indonesian patchouli, fir resin, and blackcurrant.

SINGLE NOTE: SWEET ALYSSUM
Every flower is a soul blossoming in nature. - Gérard de Nerval A lush carpet of foam-white and dusky purple blossoms: this is the gentle, joyous scent of spring-blooming sweet alyssum.
