AB49MMIr l^winßr t i OLD n 1" —sk Autumnal Equinox September 23rd marks the Autumnal Equinox, an Ember Day (along with the 20th and 22nd), and the eve of the new Moon. The ancient Ember Days are times of fasting and, this month, follow Holy Cross on September 14. The new Moon is a time of uncertain weather, prognosticators claim. Folklorists say hair and fingernails grow faster now, as do lawns. Weather records confirm that the days following both new and full Moon are most likely to be rainy or stormy. Some believe the full Moon is precipitous for birthing, but nurses and nfidwives suggest that the ""s. new Moon has a greater pull.
