MARCH’S FULL MOON is on the 29th of the month. It is known as the Full Worm Moon. Why?
We get our full moon names from the Native American tradition, specifically from the area that is now the northern and eastern United States. In the early spring and fall, worm casts are deposited all through your lawn. You’ve seen them: they appear as little piles of mud. Also known as vermicasts, they are the mounds of earth left by the worms who are digesting and leaving behind matter.
How do I know this? I write and record the daily almanac piece entitled The Naturalist’s Datebook, heard exclusively on Martha Stewart Living Radio, Sirius 112/XM 157. Listen up. And see my other TSP almanac pieces here, including a piece on how I change my diet each month at the full moon, as well as at the new moon.
