In ancient times, man, studying various phenomena of nature, noticed the relationship between them and the position of the Sun, moon and stars. Many archaeological sites show the importance our ancestors attached to accurate observations of luminaries (stars) and the calculation of their trajectories.
They discovered that the tide and ebb, birth, weather whims, cycles in women and much more are in relationship with the rhythms of the moon. Many animals in their actions are guided by the position of the moon-for example, birds collect material for nests at a certain time. The success of endless daily chores depends on the rhythms of the moon. Operations and medication taken on certain days are very effective, while others are useless or even harmful. A healing herbs collected at the “right time”, contain incomparably more active nutrients. Plants are exposed to different energies from day to day, and this influence is crucial for successful planting, gardening, plant care and harvesting.
The strong influence of the gravitational field of the moon on the earth’s biosphere causes, in particular, a change in The earth’s magnetic field. The rhythms of the moon affect changes in atmospheric pressure, temperature, wind direction and strength, night illumination, as well as fluctuations in the biopotential (energy) of plants and their resistance to adverse external factors.
Any plant contains cosmic energy, which the Indians called Prana, the Egyptians-Ka, Europeans-Ether. In terrestrial conditions, this energy can be transformed into 4 elements: Fire, Air, Water, Earth. It is believed that in the full moon above-ground parts of plants are filled with juice, and in the new moon it rushes to the roots. Sowed and planted on the growing moon, harvested at decreasing.
Modern scientists conducted a series of experiments photographing plants in currents of high-frequency fields. The influence of moon phases on the intensity of chemical-biological reactions and processes in different media was proved.
In antropogennykh centers more than half a century refined observations of ancient for the influence of Cosmo-planetary factors on time of planting, caring for plants and confirmed their relationship with yield and plant growth.
Many calendars in the past were based on the movement of the moon, as the forces determined by the position of the moon in the zodiac, are much more important for everyday life than the forces depending on the position of the Sun.
Known cycles (periods) associated with the position of the moon in space and have a major impact on all life on Earth.
- Sidereal (star) month – the time of the full circle of the moon on the celestial sphere for 27.32 days, this period is associated with a change in lunar declination.
- Synodic month – a period of time (29.53 days), after which the phases of the moon are repeated.
Scientifically proven, that the most strongly affect human new moon, full moon, the first and the third-quarters moon illusion. These phases of the moon reflect the change of energy States, and each corresponds to one of the four elements: Fire, Air, Water and Earth. One can draw an analogy with the four States of matter in modern physics: earth – solid, water – liquid, air – gaseous, fire – plasma (ionized gas).
Primary elements were endowed with the following qualities:
- fire-warm and dry,
- air-warm and humid,
- earth-cold and dry,
- water-cold and moist.
Our ancestors distinguished twelve groups of power influences, which had different properties. The constellations through which the Sun (for one year) and the Moon (for one month) passed, they gave names. So there were twelve constellations of the Zodiac: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces.
The Zodiac sign is a 30-degree section of the Ecliptic. Counting signs begins from the point of the vernal equinox forward in the course of the annual movement of the Sun. But if the Sun passes all the signs of the Zodiac during the year, the Moon – for 27,32 days.
Zodiac signs corresponding to the elements of fire-Aries, Leo, Sagittarius, earth – Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn, air – Gemini, Libra, Aquarius, water – Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces.
The effect of the energy elements in plants
The most favorable for planting, transplanting, watering and feeding Zodiac signs – Taurus, Cancer, Scorpio. Everything planted these days will grow perfectly.
Average favorability are Capricorn, Virgo, Pisces, Gemini, Libra, Sagittarius. However, under the moon in the sign of Capricorn it is better not to work with the roots of plants. When the moon is in Pisces it is better to abandon watering, fertilizing, pruning plants, and should not procure an earthen mixture, the probability of decay and the occurrence of fungal infections. When the moon is in Gemini favourable time for planting climbing and basket plant. When the moon in Libra-the right time for the formation of the crown of plants.
Barren are the signs of Aquarius, Leo, Aries. They are not recommended feeding – you can burn the plant. When the Moon is in Aquarius, it’s time for breeders, there is a chance to get something special.
In new Moon (the aspect of conjunction between the Sun and the moon), the plants are at rest, so the day before and the day after it is not recommended to sow, to plant, to transplant. Roots, damaged in new Moon, with hard rebuild its growth. Favorable: loosening, pruning (mainly houseplants).
Full Moon (opposition aspect of the Sun and moon) roots and root system have a lack of energy. Not recommended: pruning, grafting, pinching plants, as well as planting, transplantation, as reduced survival, viability of the roots. Favorable: feeding, loosening.
On the Growing moon (the first and second phase), after the new moon (of the maximum saturation point energy of twigs, leaves) is good to plant and transplant plants, tending upwards. Favorable also: watering, fertilizing, loosening plants.
On the Waning moon (third and fourth phases) favorable division, planting, transplantation of rhizome, tuberous and bulbous plants, as this is the highest point of energy saturation of roots and tubers.
With these recommendations you will be able to make your own lunar calendar.
