Astrology

If you have been following along here for a while, you know that I love weaving the wisdom of astrology into my herbal practice. The seasons, the planetary energies, the rhythms of nature, they all speak to each other in the most beautiful ways. And as an herbalist, tuning into those energies helps me choose plants that feel not just physically supportive, but deeply aligned with what the moment is calling for...

There is something about this time of year that always calls me inward. Everything slows down just a little. Our intuition feels closer to the surface. Our dreams feel more vivid. And this week’s Pisces New Moon on Wednesday feels like a beautiful moment to pause, reset, and listen to what the deeper parts of ourselves might be trying to say. For me, one of my favorite ways to honor this season is through a simple evening ritual with Blue Lotus Dream Tea.

Pisces season (February 19 to March 20) always arrives with a very different feeling in the air. It is softer. Quieter. Almost like a mist settling over the water. I notice myself slowing down during this time of year, feeling more reflective, more sensitive to energy, and more drawn inward.

As the Sun moves into Virgo, the energy of the season shifts toward grounding, cleansing, and refinement. Virgo, an earth sign ruled by Mercury, is associated with digestion, routines, nervous system balance, and the pursuit of wholeness. It’s a time to bring order, care, and mindful nourishment to both body and spirit.

Just like the breezes that carry pollen from bloom to bloom, Gemini season stirs the winds of change — but with this quick energy can come restlessness, scattered focus, or nervous tension. Thankfully, nature offers us a collection of herbs that can harmonize the season’s brilliance with grounded clarity and calm. Here are 5 Herbs to use for Gemini Season to stay rooted and rested during this lively air sign.
