Influence and characteristics of the Moon on October 25, 2023

At midday, the Moon is in the Pisces ♓ (+).

It is considered one of the most productive signs of the lunar cycle. Harvests will be abundant, as in Cancer, but stored crops will not last very long. In Pisces it is better to deal with sowing and transplanting any plants, planting on a permanent place of grown seedlings, loosening, moderate rooting and watering. Do not treat plants from diseases and pests, rejuvenating and corrective pruning.

The middle of the day falls on the 11 lunar day (+).

Today, planting, transplanting, pruning, grafting, rooting and thinning out will be favourable. Cutting and pruning can be done carefully, but it is better to refrain from heavy pruning for the time being. It is advisable to give the plants plenty of water and a moderate amount of organic and mineral fertiliser. At the same time you can loosen and cultivate the soil.

Current phase – Waxing Gibbous (+).

This is a good time for sowing plants with above-ground crops. Pruning on this day will have the maximum stimulating effect. Among the favourable types of work at this time are planting and transplanting ornamental, fruit and berry trees and shrubs, rooting cuttings, grafting, watering and fertilising. When working with the roots of plants, try to cause them as little damage as possible.

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.
