Influence and characteristics of the Moon on March 25, 2023

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 5 lunar day (+).

Life energy is actively transferred from the roots to the leaves and fruits above ground. On this day, all planting and transplanting, grafting, pruning and pinching will be successful. But today it is better to refrain from significant pruning and transplanting of shrubs and trees.

Current phase – Waxing Crescent (+).

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 – 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.
