Lunar Lore

“Moon-Drop,” in Latin, virus lunare, a vaporous drop supposed to be shed by the moon on certain herbs and other objects, when influenced by incantations. – Brewer, “Dictionary of Phrase & Fable”.

“Make friendship with the stars.”

Now the day is spent, And stars are kindling in the firmament, To us how silent, though like ours, perchance, Busy, and full of life and circumstance. – “The Lady’s Almanack” for 1852, London

When the Moon is in Libra or Scorpio, dress your Garden, and prune small Trees and Shrubs. ~Leonard Meager, “The English Gardner”, 1699.
