Influence and characteristics of the Moon on December 25, 2025
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 7 lunar day (+).
It is a good day for most gardening tasks. For example, planting and transplanting, watering and fertilising, preparing cuttings, working the soil, preparing seeds, preparing home-made preparations for winter.
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 – 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.
