Influence and characteristics of the Moon on June 8, 2026
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 23 lunar day (+).
Extremely favourable time to work on above-ground parts of plants. Prune trees and shrubs, cut back strawberry bushes, thin out shoots, weed, apply fertiliser, carry out the planned fight against pests and diseases of garden plants. It is a good time to sow plants whose main crop is formed underground. But don't water too much yet.
Current phase – Third Quarter at 3:03:04 am (±).
The middle of the descending lunar cycle is a good time to sow root crops. They will grow safely, will not turn into arrows, and will produce a rich and high-quality harvest.
Influence of the day of the week – Monday (±).
Monday is favoured by the Moon, so rely more on your intuition. Do what your inner voice tells you to do, trust it completely today. If it tells you to weed all the ridges, well, you'll have to do that tedious job, and if it asks you to limit yourself to watering the plants under your control, then you won't have to do anything else.
