Influence and characteristics of the Moon on November 20, 2025

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 2 lunar day (+).

After a period of rest, plant sap will begin to rise from the roots to the top of the plant. This is a good time for planting seeds and seedlings, transplanting trees and shrubs, watering and feeding plants, grafting and rooting cuttings. It is better not to do any pruning today.

Current phase – NEW MOON at 06:48:16 ().

An extremely unfavourable day for working with plants. If possible, devote it to weeding, pest control and various preparatory tasks. A little watering and light tilling of the soil is acceptable.

Influence of the day of the week – Thursday (+).

Thursday is controlled by the giant Jupiter. This is the best day for weeding and transplanting plants. However, any other business will also go well. If you don't have a plan, trust your intuition to tell you what to do first today.
