Influence and characteristics of the Moon on July 25, 2021

At midday, the Moon is in the Aquarius ♒ ().

Aquarius is considered one of the least fertile signs. Plants planted on this day can become permanent survivors. There is no chance of at least a reasonable yield. However, this is a time when a lot of agro-technical work can be carried out successfully. Weeding, loosening, thinning, pruning and pinching of shoots will be favourable today. You can shape the crowns of fruit and ornamental bushes and prune the whiskers of strawberries. Do not water or feed cultivated plants during Aquarius as there is a high risk of root rot and other root system diseases.

The middle of the day falls on the 16 lunar day ().

Take a break from active gardening and vegetable gardening. The movement of sap in the plants stops, the breathing of the soil slows down. It is recommended to do some tilling and loosening of beds, weeding. You can apply fertiliser and water moderately, as well as carry out complex treatments against weeds and pests. Do not plant, transplant, pick, cut or prune any plants.

Current phase – Waning Gibbous (±).

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 – Sunday (±).

Sunday is under the patronage of the sun. This is the time to rest from pressing matters and spend your free time in joy and fun, in the circle of family, friends and like-minded people. In the garden you can do light work that does not require much effort or energy.
