March Moon/ Sugar Moon

Description

Sugar Moon

As the maple sap begins to run, we learn of one of the main medicines given to the Anishnabe which balances our blood, and heals us. During this time, we are encouraged to balance our lives as we would our blood sugar levels. Maple sap is a diuretic and inner cleanser. Maple syrup is a natural sweetener in traditional foods. . It’s important to plant and preserve these trees for seven generations to come, so that our descendants can continue to offer thanks to the maple and everything she gives us.

Also known as Maple Moon,  Eagle Moon, Crow Moon Crane Moon, Snow crust Moon, Worm Moon.
