In what phase of the moon to cut a birch. Moon calendar

The growth and development of plants depends on the state of the moon, in what phase and sign of the zodiac it is. The influence of the moon on plants is great. It should be noted that with a waning moon, plant juices go into the roots, and with a growing one, on the contrary, they rise to the aerial part of the plants.

Moon phase calendar by months 2017

Lunar rhythms

When using the position of the Moon in gardening and horticulture, we will take the known patterns about its position on starry sky and its influence as a guide to action.

New moon, waxing moon, full moon, waning moon, phases of the moon, position of the moon in the signs of the zodiac, rising and falling moon, lunar days- each of these concepts indicates a certain rhythm that occurs in nature, the culprit of which is the Moon.

Knowledge about lunar rhythms and their influence on all living things have been used since ancient times. If you want to succeed in gardening, do not refuse the help of the Moon.

Weeding or weed control during the waning moon

Eat effective method the destruction of mainly annual weeds in the spring before sowing or planting. It is as follows: for the first time, you need to dig up a garden bed or weed a plot with the growing Moon in the sign of Leo - this stimulates the germination of weed seeds. Then dig up again, weed with the waning Moon in the sign of Capricorn - this makes it possible to destroy the weeds that have already sprouted from the seeds. And then weed, loosen, dig in again after a while again with the waning moon.

In the summer, during the growing season of plants, weeding is best done during the waning moon, especially when it passes the sign of Capricorn. But here it is important not to damage the cultivated plants, as they will also die.

Landing based on lunar phases

Planting plants is best done with the growing moon. The best time for a transplant is when the Moon is in Virgo - during this period, the root system is very well restored and the plant grows quickly. These days, you can even transplant not only young trees, but also older ones. It is also good at this time to start rooting cuttings and chibouks of grapes.

Watering plants, what days

Watering can be carried out at any time, except for days when the Moon is in air signs (Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius), but it is better when the Moon is waning and in the signs of Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces.

Pruning trees and shrubs by the moon

Pruning is carried out with a waning moon. This is best done when the waning moon is in Aries and Leo.

Graft

The vaccination is carried out with the growing moon, preferably closer to the full moon, when the moon is in Aries, Leo and Sagittarius. At the same time, the rootstock juice quickly rises into the grafted stalk or kidney and nourishes it - the grafting site quickly grows together.

In order to cure a diseased plant or stimulate the growth of a poorly developing one, it is necessary during the waning moon, in the fourth phase (last quarter), or better on the day of the new moon, pinch the top of a tree branch, in front of the bud, which will continue to grow and develop intensively. The same effect can be achieved by pinching plants when the Moon passes the sign of Virgo.

Fertilization

Fertilization is most effective on a full moon or a waning moon. Fertilizers penetrate well into the root layer of the soil, are absorbed by plants and do not enter the groundwater.

Days of Fruit, Root, Flower, Leaf

When the Moon passes the signs of the Zodiac Aries, Leo, Sagittarius - the period is called the "days of the Fruits", because the rhythms of the Moon have a special positive influence to the fruits.

When the Moon passes the signs of the Zodiac Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn - the period is called "days of the Root", because the rhythms of the Moon have a special effect on the roots.

When the Moon passes the signs of the Zodiac Gemini, Libra, Aquarius - the period is called the "days of the Flower", because the rhythms of the Moon have a special effect on flowers.

When the Moon passes the signs of the Zodiac Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces - the period is called "Leaf days", because the rhythms of the Moon have a special effect on the foliage.

How do you think this information can be put into practice? That's how! If, for example, we loosen the soil on the beds of lettuce always on the days of the Leaf, then it will grow more magnificent, more productive than we would do it on other days.

Carrots, beets, radishes and other root crops will be more successful if we not only sow them, but also weed them, loosen the ground in the days of the Root.

Tomatoes, cucumbers and beans will thank us the best fruits when we take care of them - we dive, weed, loosen the soil and the days of the Fruit.

Well, the days of the Flower, of course, are best used to care for flowers. By the way, flowers for bouquets should be cut only on Flower days if possible - they will stand in a vase much longer.

New moon

These are good days for picking fruits and vegetables for long-term storage, weeding, pest and disease control, pinching and pinching vegetable crops. Slow-germinating seeds can be soaked or sowed.

Full moon

This good time for loosening the soil around plants, weeding and collecting seeds.

I'm sure these tips will help you grow good harvest at lower labor costs.

From time immemorial, people have accumulated knowledge about the influence of the moon on the growth and productivity of agricultural crops. They were kept secret, and therefore most of these observations were lost. Only in the twentieth century astrologers different countries managed by common efforts to restore and expand this knowledge.

It is better to combine seasonal work in the garden or garden with the stay on certain days of the Moon in one or another sign of the Zodiac and with the phase of the Moon, since these factors have a significant impact on the growth and development of plants.

I already wrote that the duration lunar month is approximately 29.5 days. During this time, the Moon, making a complete revolution around the Earth, successively goes through four phases (new moon, first quarter, full moon and last quarter).

With the growing moon (new moon and first quarter) the most enhanced plant growth occurs, the juices rise up the stems to the branches and fruits.

With a waning moon, on the contrary, plants that bear fruit in the ground (“roots”), as well as most fruit trees and shrubs, since their fertility depends on a powerful root system.

As we approach the full moon plant life is activated.

But there is no better time to pick berries and fruits - at this time they contain maximum amount moisture and nutrients.

In the second half lunar cycle(full moon, last quarter) plants rest, save stored energy.

? You can do their transplant, pruning, grafting.

? It is also good to collect fruits for long-term storage.

? Closer to the new moon, take care of weeding and the destruction of pests in the garden.

The most favorable for transplanting any plants are the days of the Moon's stay in the fertile signs of Earth and Water:

Capricorn,

Scorpion,

? Fish.

For weeding, pruning and harvesting days are coming when the Moon is in the signs of Fire and Air:

? Aries,

Sagittarius,

? Twins,

? Scales,

Aquarius.

It must be remembered that all types of work related to the growth and development of plants must be performed on the growing moon, and everything you want to get rid of, on the waning one.

The famous astrologer Alexander Zaraev writes: “There are a number of additional factors in addition to the influence of the phases of the moon, which must be taken into account when growing and caring for plants in order to get an additional increase in yield. Most an important factor is the influence of the energies of the zodiac sign in which the Moon is located at the time of planting or during various agricultural work, ”so the data below will help you succeed in your summer cottage.

More than once it has been said that this work is best done by a specialist. It is better if a skilled person shows pruning and grafting techniques so that you can work on your own afterwards.

But not everyone who skillfully cuts knows what days are best to do it. Do not prune trees and shrubs during the growing moon, the time from the full moon to the new moon is the best.

Plants Focused on Direction vitality down, they will hardly notice the pruning and will easily transfer it if it is done during the waning moon.

The best days for fruit pruning are “fruit days”, days under the signs of Aries, Leo, Sagittarius. The descending Moon is also favorable (time from Gemini to Sagittarius). In this case, the juices do not come out of the trees, because they are directed downwards.

The most inappropriate time to choose is the waxing moon and the days when the moon is in the signs of Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces. The tree will lose a lot of strength, juice, the fruits on it will develop slowly or will not start at all in the year of pruning. Of course, the tree itself will not die, but it will suffer. It can die if you cut it on the full moon and on the days of Cancer.

Vaccinations, on the contrary, will be more successful with the growing moon. This is more delicate work than pruning, because it is not about destruction, but about the appearance of a new plant. To improve the variety, increase the endurance of the plant and not ruin your work, choose the right day. Vaccination is best done closer to the full moon in the "days of the fetus." The growing Moon will “drive” the juice and forces of the tree into a new shoot, which will allow it to take root and develop without difficulty. If you can’t guess the growing moon, focus on the sign of Aries.

What position of the moon is most favorable for agricultural work?

There are signs of the Zodiac that are literally created to work in the garden. And let the days when the Moon passes through them rarely fall, two or three days a month, be sure: everything that you have time to do at this time will pay for all the other days, even if you allow yourself to be a little lazy later ... To such auspicious signs belong to the sign of Virgo. Planting and sowing of any crops under the sign of Virgo are very successful, and the grafted cuttings take root, as if by magic.

In what other works is the Virgo sign favorable?

• Feel free to transplant flowers and seedlings of vegetables - they will be healthy and beautiful;
• In the fall, drop the layers of the necessary plants in Virgo during the waning moon - they will take root and quickly give roots;
• Plant cuttings in the spring, with the growing Moon in Virgo, especially overwintered plants;
• With the growing Moon in Virgo, you can sow the lawn, it will quickly rise and be thick. The sign of Leo is also suitable for this;
• Not only manipulations with plants, but gardening in general is favorable these days. Repair inventory, install a fence, put props - the Moon will make them strong. Just choose a waning moon or a new moon for this.
• You can do these days reorganization of the site;
• Transfer to the days of the Virgin all work with delicate and sensitive plants.

What position of the moon is best for cutting trees?

Cutting down a tree is a big responsibility. It's not even about moral responsibility - everyone understands how hard it is: to part with a tree on a site for any reason. If this is a done deal, then you should think about later life wood, unless, of course, it burns out in the coming days in a fire or a bath ...

The moon in the same way affects the felling of trees, as well as all other events of our life.

There are several "lunar" rules for cutting trees:

1. The days of the waning moon are most favorable for cutting and uprooting trees.
2. If the tree is used to make furniture, cut it in the first eight days after the December new moon.
3. If the wood will be used for handicrafts, cut the tree exactly on the new moon under the sign of Scorpio. For example, such a day was November 12.
4. Cut a tree for firewood in October, in the first phase of the growing moon.
5. To prevent future boards and logs from sewing, cut a tree in the sign of Pisces on the growing Moon.
6. If you cut down a tree in November before the new moon, it will not crack.
7. The tree that will be used for making tools is better to cut on February 26 on the waning moon, and it would be nice under the sign of Pisces.

At what position of the moon is it better to harvest, store and preserve crops?

It is a great pleasure for housewives to boast in winter even rows of jars with all sorts of goodies, ripe apples that keep the taste and smell of summer, fresh vegetables without a shadow of damage. Otherwise, what is the use of all our skillful hands, expensive fertilizers, endless days of work and worries? First of all, a garden and a garden should be for the joy of the owner, and only then - for the application of his physical, and most importantly, mental strength. So, let's harvest for joy and save it in at its best! And the moon will help us in this.

Do you want your grains, vegetables and potatoes to keep well? Store them on days when the Moon is in the sign of Aries. The most favorable time for this is the period from Sagittarius to Gemini, that is, the period of the rising moon. Such work depends more on the sign of the Zodiac than on the phase of the moon, but the fruits are more juicy precisely with the rising moon.

The moon will also take care of the jam, as well as all other homemade preparations - canned food, juice, dressings. And here it will be better if it is ascending

When harvesting garden and vegetable products, avoid the constellation Pisces, even if the Moon is rising. Everything that you collect under this sign should be used immediately. If you put vegetables in the cellar, put fruit in boxes, preserve, you risk getting only mold and sour jam in winter. The same thing awaits you if you make preparations in the days of the Virgin. This is an excellent sign for work on the site, but it is not worth harvesting, storing and processing crops on such days.

If you want to dry fruits, vegetables and herbs for storage, collect them during the waning moon. Even the care of the storage of vegetables and fruits must be done on certain days. If you wash the shelves during the waning moon, and even better - under the signs of Fire or Air, you can easily and permanently destroy mold and fungi.

Our planet Earth is filled with beautiful plants that not only nourish us, but also delight our eyes, bring aesthetic pleasure, and peace of mind. Plants, as part of the world around us, are very sensitive to external manifestations not only natural, but also to how the person himself relates to them. It is important to take into account everything when interacting with them - the seasons, the weather, the position of the Moon and the signs of the zodiac, what force is manifested in nature, rising or falling, and even more importantly, with what thoughts we interact with them. The love given to the plant will return to you with double strength, they will thank you for your care with their fruits and the beauty of flowering. Remember this even then Lunar tips will have extra strength and your harvest will be the best, and the flowers the most beautiful. Good luck))).

PHASES OF THE MOON AND THEIR EFFECT ON PLANT GROWTH

WAXING CRESCENT
