On May 28 at 12:00 pm the Moon will be in the Waxing Crescent phase in the zodiacal constellation of Gemini ♊, according to the calendar it is the 3 lunar day. The percentage of lunar illumination on this day is about 2%. Moonrise will occur at 4:09 am and sunset at 10:38 pm.
This sign has neutral fertility. Seeds planted today will develop moderately, producing plants that will require a lot of your attention throughout the growing season. Nor can you expect an abundant harvest, but there will be enough for your modest needs. It is believed that in Gemini it is favourable to plant mainly curly and ampel plants, as well as those with whiskers. It is better to stop work on dipping, weeding, thinning out seedlings, loosening, but it is better to wait with watering. It is a good time to harvest crops for long-term storage and fruit for seedlings, to prepare medicinal herbs, and to preserve, pickle and dry vegetables and fruit.
Plant sap moves quickly up the stem, accelerating growth. This is why plants need more water. Today, you will be planting seeds, seedlings or transplants, transplanting trees and shrubs, weeding, thinning seedlings and loosening rows. Take cuttings and use them for grafting and rooting.
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.
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.
