Zodiac signs and fertile sowing

Why are fertile zodiac signs chosen when sowing? Because the moon can wax or wane depending on the season and time of year, but its position in a particular constellation directly influences plant growth. This factor is always taken into account when compiling a lunar calendar. But if you want to learn how to create your own sowing calendars, you need to study the zodiac signs in more detail.

General information about the constellations

Experienced gardeners don't need to be told that the Sun and Moon are celestial bodies that directly influence life on Earth. Sunlight makes everything grow, and the different phases of the Moon regulate the flow of sap in plants.

Unlike the Sun, the Moon takes only 2-3 days to move from one constellation to another. The Sun takes exactly a month to do this. The days when the satellite moves from constellation to constellation vary from year to year. even by month.

Even in ancient times, when all sowing work was coordinated with the lunar calendar, fertile and infertile zodiac signs were determined. Certain constellations, when the Moon is in them, are better for picking, others for transplanting. And under certain combinations, it's best not to do any work with the soil at all.

The most fertile zodiac signs and the sowing calendar

Aries

It's considered an unfavorable constellation when combined with any lunar phase. Avoid planting; instead, you can devote your time to getting rid of weeds and pests.

Taurus

A wonderfully fertile sign. Pay particular attention to it when transplanting seedlings. The Moon in Taurus is suitable for planting root crops (that is, crops that produce fruit underground). If the Moon is in Taurus and also waxing, you can safely plant legumes, any cabbage, and greens. As for trees and shrubs, you can safely prune them during Taurus.

Interesting! It's always been believed that harvesting when the Moon is in Taurus will keep your produce fresh for a long time.

Twins

Another unfavorable constellation for gardening. Weeding should be limited to weeding, but pest control is permitted.

Cancer

One of the most fertile signs. During the Moon's time in Cancer, you can transplant seedlings and plant moisture-demanding crops. These include tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and all types of cabbage. Leafy crops planted during the Moon's time in Cancer will thrive. If the Moon is waxing and in this constellation, you should plant fruit-bearing shrubs. Additionally, if you have the energy and time, you can plant root crops.

Interesting! Harvesting is not recommended when the Moon, in any phase, is in the constellation Cancer. It is believed that the harvest will not have a long shelf life.

Lion

There's a certain cyclicality to this, as Leo is a bad sign for gardening. The only tasks you can do are weeding and pest control.

Virgo

Any planting when the Moon is in Virgo will yield a poor harvest. However, during this period, you can safely cultivate the soil, loosen it, and weed. These days are also suitable for pruning old branches on trees and shrubs. It is extremely important to note that the waxing Moon in Virgo is the most favorable time for planting strawberries.

Scales

When our planet's satellite is in this constellation, it's recommended to actively transplant seedlings. If the Moon is also waxing, you can plant legumes, cucumbers, and even flowers. It's a good time for gardeners to plant fruit trees: plums, pears, and cherries. As for root vegetables, they can be planted during this sign, but only during the waning Moon. Seeds harvested during this period are guaranteed to be strong. As for harvesting, the time is more favorable than unfavorable.

Scorpion

When the Moon is in this constellation, it's safe to transplant and plant tomatoes, cucumbers, pumpkins, and squash. Gardeners can graft their trees. If the Moon is waning and in this constellation, it's a good time to sow seeds and plant root crops. This is a good time for both harvesting and storing seeds.

Sagittarius

Once again, we've approached an unfavorable constellation for working the land. What can be done is get rid of weeds and pests.

Capricorn

The constellation is favorable for the Moon's position. You can transplant and plant trees and shrubs, even those planted for the winter. If the Moon is waning in Capricorn, you should focus on root crops and bulbous flowers. During the waxing moon, it's best to cultivate legumes. Harvests harvested during Capricorn will have a long shelf life. You'll also be able to harvest high-quality seeds.

Aquarius

The sign is completely unsuitable for planting. It's generally best to avoid gardening, but if you do find yourself there, get rid of any weeds or pests.

Fish

The time is completely unsuitable for tree work. However, you can plant all crops that yield above-ground fruit. The only condition is that the moon must be waxing. If the moon is waning in this constellation, it's best to focus on root vegetables and bulbous flowers. It's best not to harvest the harvest, as it will store extremely poorly.

Now you know the fertile signs for planting plants, shrubs and trees, and flowers. It's especially important to note that gardening can't be planned solely based on the lunar calendar. Weather, temperature, and the time of year are also important.
