Moon in Libra, moving into Scorpio.
Im in Boulder for Kan’Nal rehearsal, but my thoughts are constantly to and with the land. Awakening this morning I feel the need to at least outline a basic plan and flow of action. Not that I must stick to it, as working spontaneously with what arises in the moment to be done is quite a pleasure. But also having a solid list and plan to fall back on when needed. First a general brainstorm: Ø Get rocks. Ø Dig Ponds, swales, terraces, new house area. Ø Plan and research the ponds, swales terraces. Lay them out on the landscape. Ø Clean out new Zone one garden or old wood and debris. Ø Clean out shed for wood storage and make it more efficient and useful. Ø Start fencing for chickens. Ø Find the domestic water line to the chicken house, so I can excavate and chisel plow around it without breaking it. Ø Buy cover crops for the new garden and plant them. · Nitrogen group · Daikon · Flower crop Ø Start a plan for the layout and flow of the garden. · Upper terrace § Partial sun and shady areas. § Features: Cherry tree, pear tree, small volunteer cherry, curly dock. § This would be a nice nook/hang out area, tuck in some more beds around the edges, grow vines on the chicken fence. · Middle terrace · Lower terrace · Ø Rip out some asphalt from the garden area. Ø Design and plan a greenhouse for the front of the house. Ø Design and plan the new house. Ø Figure out how to divert the extra irrigation water through the new garden and through to the ditch. · Modify the box, so overflow water goes also into another 3” pipe that travels with the current 2’ and runs with it. · This would also be useful to fill the west pond. · At the bottom of the property there would need to be a pipe installed under the road leading across the other property to empty into the Farmers ditch. Before they pave the road would be a good time to install this.
