At present Willowtree Farm is looking for seasonal help, and by the sounds of the description on their website it sounds like a fun and friendly atmosphere to work in and a great place to experience farming first hand. 

Willowtree Farm also delivers fresh fruit and veg right to your own front door, not sure on the area of delivery for this service or the cost… but you can find out by emailing info@willowtreefarm.ca

The moon is Taurus may have us thinking about our possessions and finances… Taurus needs security in these area’s, so if things aren’t quite right with your finances now is the time to sort them out and get yourself on track… This new moon may also prove positive for house hunting and furniture shopping… art items of value and antiques may also catch the eye … Be cautious of the possession mind set, we may own material items but we never own people…. :) This months new moon can be used to our advantage, helping us to feel secure and safe on a material and financial level. 

When the moon is void off course we can be unsure as to how we are really feeling about something or something, it’s therefore advisable to stick to routine tasks at this time. If any legal documents or long-term commitments are in the picture take care to make sure you understand everything that is involved before signing… Delaying important decisions and commitments is highly recommended when the moon is void off course… (**Note the moon is not void off course when the moon becomes New for April 2014, but she will be the next day, April 30 2014 at approximately 11: 53 am.**)

A solar eclipse can have an influence on us making material things and with the plans we make.  Issues and or situations that happen or are initiated during an eclipse last longer than usual, the affects can be negative or positive. When  plans have to be made and ideas need to be put into motion or people we just can’t get away from or do without yet life just doesn’t seem to moving along as smoothly as one would like, being and implementing patience is strongly advices. When the new moon is in Taurus, patience should be easier to assume, however, so can a stubborn manner, be sure not to confuse the two. 

Those most influenced by this month’s New Moon are those who have the following: 

Moon in Taurus: Venus in Taurus: Sun in Taurus: Any Planets in the 2nd house. For those who have oppositions or square aspects to the moon, these may prove to be challenging times. For those who have trines or sextiles, these may prove to be opportune times.
