Natural tidbit for the woodsmen.

The next few days leading up to this Winter Solstice New Moon
Are the ideal time for harvesting wood.  Its known as "Moonwood".
Because the energies are drawn into the Earth, and tree sap and moisture;  logs will weigh significantly less, and dry quicker.

In studies, the grain itself is actually tighter, because the moisture isnt taking up any room.  You will end up with more dense boards from any milling.

Even if you're just harvesting firewood, the New Moon is the time, and this is the best one.
I learned this first from old-time Oregon loggers, and there are Germans who have studied this folk knowledge quite a bit, in the modern day.
