Influence and characteristics of the Moon on September 14, 2022

At midday, the Moon is in the Taurus ♉ (+).

Taurus is a fertile sign. Plants planted today, after an initial delay in sprouting, will give you confident, vigorous growth and a good crop. However, the fruit will not keep well and will not be suitable for obtaining quality seed. With Taurus, the following types of work are optimal: soaking and sowing, moderate loosening, pinching and pruning, watering, drying, canning and harvesting for long-term storage. However, deep loosening that affects the roots and transplanting plants on this day is better avoided.

The middle of the day falls on the 18 lunar day (±).

Beginning of active saturation of the root zone of plants. Sowing root crops and plants that will produce the main crop underground. From this day you can finally start pruning, grazing, picking and pinching again. A good time for grafting. Weeding and thinning of seedlings is still important, but deep loosening of the soil and heavy watering should be avoided.

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 – Wednesday (+).

Wednesday is ruled by Mercury. It is considered a good day for any work on the property. It is even possible to make a small margin for the second half of the week.
