Influence of a lunar day

22 lunar day

Astrologers and astronomers advise against actively working on the 22nd lunar day. Intense physical activity is not prohibited, but it is better to devote yourself to measured care of the vegetable garden or garden. Indeed, on this day, the work on the site will be more fruitful than ever.

The fact is that on the 22nd lunar day, the activity of the earth's satellite decreases, so the vegetation of plants also stops. This makes it possible to carry out any manipulations, from pruning to the introduction of strong pesticides.

The forces of plants are currently collected in the underground part, so on day 22 it is worth picking up ripe root crops. It is also not bad to cultivate the soil: how to fertilize it, and loosen and dig it up. It is only necessary to refrain from plucking shoots: they are too weakened.

Positive impact of the day

  • A good time to make adjustments to the appearance of garden flora;
  • You can go in for collecting root crops, as well as bulbous flowers;
  • It is permissible to prepare crops with a long shelf life;
  • The soil is sensitive, so it is worthwhile to devote time to loosening, fertilizing;
  • It would be nice to water the plantings and loosen the soil.

Negative impact of the day

  • Pinching of plants is prohibited: the aerial part of the shoots is too pampered. And watering can lead to rotting.

Influence of the day of the week

Monday

On the first day of the week, the influence of the moon is paramount on human life. Having the peculiarity of introducing chaos and confusion in all matters, the celestial body can significantly spoil even those plans that did not seem to bring any special difficulties in implementation. Astrologers advise against planning global events for Monday, as the hostess of the day can turn everything upside down. If you cannot transfer the planned affairs, then you should listen to your own attitude. Perhaps the Moon itself will tell you how to behave in a given situation.

In the garden and in the garden, you can do mediocre things, the implementation of which will definitely not be able to harm the future harvest or flowering of plants.

It is strongly undesirable to arrange pruning of trees and shrubs. Such actions may not only fail to bring the expected fruiting and rapid flowering, but also ruin green spaces.

On Monday, new seedlings are not planted, and old plants are not transplanted from one place to another. Even the most favorable weather conditions will not help to overcome the influence of the moon, so survival rate and yield will be defective.

It is better to devote this day to:

  • care for existing green crops.
  • Cleaning dry foliage,
  • fertilization of the soil and control of plant pests.
  • picking ripe berries, fruits and vegetables.

Moon phase influence

Third quarter

The third quarter of the lunar cycle is the ideal time for planting. During this period, the root part of the plants absorbs all the strength, so planting trees, shrubs and flowers will be very successful. The harvested harvest of fruits will have excellent taste and abundance.

When planting or replanting, it is important to pay careful attention to the root of the plants. When planted during this period, the plantings will have a not too developed ground part, but a very strong root system.

It is not recommended to carry out such work:

  • loosening the soil;
  • digging the soil;
  • hilling;
  • abundant hydration;
  • harvesting ground fruits and greens;
  • planting and diving seedlings.

Any action that can cause damage to the root system should not be carried out. Otherwise, it is fraught with stopping the growth and development of the plant or its death.

The following actions are recommended:

  • removal and pruning of excess or defective branches and shoots, antennae;
  • harvesting old plants, removing old foliage;
  • weeding;
  • spraying foliage, branches to protect against pests and diseases;
  • fertilizing the root part;
  • fertilizing the soil;
  • sowing or planting root crops and bulbous plants;
  • grafting of tree crops and shrubs;
  • harvesting of roots and bulbs.

The harvested roots and bulbs at this time will be as juicy as possible, since all the strength is concentrated in the root part. All work that is carried out during this period should be directed to the ground part of the plants so as not to damage the roots. The harvested fruits have excellent long-term storage properties, they are also suitable for canning, pickling, pickling for the winter.

The influence of the zodiac sign

Cancer

The period is favorable for work on the ground. Cancer is considered one of the most fertile signs of the zodiac, but an important detail should be taken into account - if you plant seedlings during his reign, they will develop a magnificent root system, but their stems will not be particularly strong and often cannot withstand the weight of a ripe crop, which will be juicy. but perishable.

The most acceptable activities when the Moon is in Cancer:

  • Sowing and planting crops, the fruits of which are not stored without processing.
  • Soil cultivation - deep loosening, harrowing, top dressing, weed removal.
  • Collection of berries and herbs, which are then salted or dried.
  • Sourdough, juice extraction.

It is necessary to plant only plants that do not need a powerful stem, that is, those that are attached to the supports. The harvest is impressive, but it can also damage the stem, and the fruits will grow too juicy to be preserved for a long time in their natural form. Therefore, they need to be dried, salted, pickled.

The production of juices and nectars will become timely, since the harvested berries and fruits are literally saturated with moisture.

The right time has come for active ground operations. Harrowing, plowing and digging, weeding beds, fertilizing fruit crops would be a good idea.

What is not recommended to do now:

  • Planting tree seedlings, since the moment is not very favorable for the development of a strong trunk.
  • Spraying with insecticides. When the moon is in the constellation of Cancer, it is impossible to use chemicals to combat pests, fungal diseases, because plants absorb everything especially actively.

Pay attention to roots and bulbs - they won't stay safe for long. Enumerate if necessary.
