Influence and characteristics of the Moon on June 9, 2028

At midday, the Moon is in the Capricorn ♑ (+).

Capricorn is a moderately fertile sign. The harvest from crops planted on these days will not be record-breaking, but it will be good enough. The fruits will last for a long time. This period is especially favourable for planting seedlings of trees, shrubs and perennials. They will bear fruit for a very long time. From the whole list of possible works in Capricorn it is better to stop at soaking and sowing seeds, planting seedlings and rootstocks, transplanting, pruning, pinching and grafting of cultivated plants, taking cuttings. All root and leaf feeding will be successful today. If you have free time, you can make preparations for winter. Take special care with the roots of plants at this time; it is better to leave them alone if possible.

The middle of the day falls on the 16 lunar day ().

Take a break from active gardening and vegetable gardening. The movement of sap in the plants stops, the breathing of the soil slows down. It is recommended to do some tilling and loosening of beds, weeding. You can apply fertiliser and water moderately, as well as carry out complex treatments against weeds and pests. Do not plant, transplant, pick, cut or prune any plants.

Current phase – Waning Gibbous (±).

The moon is waning, which means that the active energy is beginning to flow into the lower part of the plants. This is a good time to sow crops that produce underground. The high sensitivity of the roots at this time imposes certain restrictions on careless manipulation with them. Pest control, weeding, thinning out of seedlings, pruning of shoots and whiskers, fertilisation with organic substances can be carried out strictly under the roots. It is a good time to harvest, as the fruit will keep longer.

Influence of the day of the week – Friday (±).

Friday is the day of Venus, which means that dacha women should take care of their beauty. It is better to let your favourite man do the physical work in the garden.
