Influence and characteristics of the Moon on July 10, 2028

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 18 lunar day (±).

Beginning of active saturation of the root zone of plants. Sowing root crops and plants that will produce the main crop underground. From this day you can finally start pruning, grazing, picking and pinching again. A good time for grafting. Weeding and thinning of seedlings is still important, but deep loosening of the soil and heavy watering should be avoided.

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 – 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.
