Influence and characteristics of the Moon on February 6, 2021
At midday, the Moon is in the Sagittarius ♐ (±).
Sagittarius is one of the less fertile signs. Planted crops will grow fairly steadily, but the harvest will be modest. However, the fruit you do get will be fully ripe and can be used to produce your own quality seed. Boldly plant today all plants that are primarily decorative, including seedlings of all trees and shrubs (including fruit and berries). Work on this day can focus on weeding, thinning out seedlings, pruning, cutting back whiskers, digging, loosening and dipping. This is a good time to prepare your produce in advance. During Sagittarius it is better to avoid watering, pruning and pinching. The wounds the plants receive may not heal for a long time and become open gates for various pathogens.
The middle of the day falls on the 25 lunar day (±).
On this day, refuse to set any work records; calm and measured gardening with good breaks to rest and contemplate the beauty of the surroundings is welcome. Planting root-bearing plants, applying gentle organic fertilisers, spraying against pests and diseases. Free time can be used to improve the garden. Now is not the time to pick seedlings, actively weed or loosen the soil, or do anything that could damage the roots. Heavy watering is also not recommended.
Current phase – Waning Crescent (±).
The moon is waning, which means that the active energy is beginning to flow into the lower part of the plants. This is a good time to sow crops that produce underground. The high sensitivity of the roots at this time imposes certain restrictions on careless manipulation with them. Pest control, weeding, thinning out of seedlings, pruning of shoots and whiskers, fertilisation with organic substances can be carried out strictly under the roots. It is a good time to harvest, as the fruit will keep longer.
Influence of the day of the week – Saturday (±).
Saturday is ruled by Saturn, which is responsible for efficiency and learning. This is a good time to solve accumulated problems in the controlled dacha area.
