A few words about the lunar calendar of sowing and planting for each day of the year.

About the lunar calendar of sowing and planting for every day of the year

The daily lunar calendar of sowing and planting contains a list of work for every day in the garden, flower garden and vegetable garden. The lunar calendar was compiled for those who are passionate about gardening, floriculture, and vegetable gardening. In the calendar, the days for sowing and planting various crops are recommended based on the lunar phases and the Moon’s passage through the zodiac constellation, as well as agricultural dates.

The lunar calendar gives recommendations on what seeds are favorable to sow, what plants to plant, how best to care for plants under the influence of the Moon. Fertile zodiac signs Capricorn, Pisces, Taurus, Cancer, Libra, Scorpio favor sowing, planting, and a bountiful harvest. During the days of low-fertility signs Aquarius, Aries, Gemini, Leo, Virgo, Sagittarius, you can sow and plant certain types of plants, mainly decorative ones. Under a favorable zodiac sign, root crops are planted and sown on the waning Moon, and other vegetable crops, berries, fruits, and ornamental plants are planted and sown on the waxing Moon. During the full moon and new moon, the lunar calendar does not recommend sowing and planting; on these days they fight against plant diseases and pests.

Also, the lunar calendar lists for each day the necessary daily work in the garden, the results of which are not influenced by the Moon; these works are determined by the agricultural conditions of the given area and the weather. In the lunar sowing calendar, for these works we recommend days free from sowing and planting work.

The lunar calendar shows the dates for sowing and planting many plants. These are fruit and ornamental trees, berry and ornamental shrubs, annual and perennial flower and berry crops. Our lunar calendar tells us about the favorable times for sowing and planting almost all vegetable crops grown in the Middle Zone, with various methods of cultivation: planting, forcing, sowing, through seedlings, including in a greenhouse, on a windowsill and in open ground.

The lunar sowing and planting calendar for each day contains astronomical information indicating the exact time of the Moon's entry into each zodiac sign, the hours of the full moon and new moon are indicated, the time of moonrise and sunset, the time of sunrise and sunset and the length of daylight are given. If the Moon enters a certain zodiac sign during the day, then in the lunar calendar, in the sowing and planting recommendations column, a note is given before the specified hour to sow, plant and care for plants according to the recommendations of the previous day of the lunar calendar.

In addition, the lunar calendar of sowing and planting for each day contains folk signs for the Moon and signs for the harvest from the folk agricultural calendar.

Astronomical information about the Sun in our calendar

If you observe the position of the Sun for a long enough time, for example, throughout the year, you will notice that its height above the horizon on different days will be different - the highest on June 21-22, and the lowest on December 21-22. These events fall on different days in different years. These days are called the summer and winter solstices. Twice a year, on March 20-21 and September 22-23, the Sun rises exactly at the east point and sets exactly at the west point. On these days it is below and above the horizon for the same amount of time (that is, day is equal to night), and therefore they are called the days of the spring and autumn equinox. Between March 21 and September 22, the Sun rises north of the east point and, conversely, between September 23 and March 21 south of it.

Traditionally, March 21, June 22, September 23 and December 22 are considered the beginning of the seasons in the northern hemisphere of the Earth: spring, summer, autumn and winter.

We publish information on which days the listed astronomical events fall this year in the daily lunar calendar, which is given above.

How to grow plants in the rhythm of the lunar phases

The topic itself is interesting about the influence on the growth and development of plants of the position of the planets in the zodiac circle, in particular the closest companion of our planet - the Moon, about the interaction of the phases of the Moon and the growth, development of plants, the activity of microbiological processes in the soil.

The influence of the Moon on earthly affairs has been known since ancient times. It is with this planet that the tidal phenomena of ocean and sea waters, as well as fluctuations in electromagnetic fields that affect the weather, are associated. It is believed that on a full moon, the above-ground parts of plants are filled with juice to a greater extent, and on a new moon, it seems to tend to flow back to the roots. In the first case, there is a stronger hydration of the tissues, in the second - some dryness. From here comes research into the influence of the moon on plants, and based on the knowledge gained, a lunar calendar is compiled for each day of the current year.

Plants are influenced not only by the phases of the moon, but also by its position in the zodiac signs. It is better to plant when our companion is in the constellations of Taurus, Cancer, Libra, Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces. Fight weeds when she is in the signs of Aries, Gemini, Sagittarius, Aquarius. The presence of the Moon in the constellation Aries is conducive to collecting fruits - they are better stored. Moving to the constellation Libra is favorable for watering and grafting, to the constellation Leo - for mowing and weeding, Sagittarius - for digging up root crops, Aquarius - for exterminating pests.

If you believe the experience of astrological observations, then the zodiac signs are divided into productive (fertile): Taurus, Cancer, Libra, Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces, and unproductive (infertile): Aries, Gemini, Leo, Virgo, Sagittarius, Aquarius. Planting and sowing of fruit and ornamental plants according to the lunar calendar is best done when the Moon is in a productive zodiac sign.

How the lunar calendar of sowing and planting is compiled for each day

From a practical perspective, the recommendations of the lunar calendar will be valid if they correspond to the local calendar dates for sowing and planting crops. Due to the dissimilarity of climatic conditions, landscape, and soil in different regions, it is impossible to develop a single lunar calendar. If we calculate the timing of sowing crops in another specific area, we will get significant differences. In one case it will be late, in the other it will be too early (compare the south of Russia and the Urals). Agricultural work, as well as care and cleaning work, are also related to the length of daylight hours.

The local folk calendar, traditional experience, and accumulated knowledge are the main support in the practical activities of a gardener, florist and gardener. For neighboring regions, any lunar calendar needs amendments regarding the deadlines for sowing and planting, taking into account the conditions of a particular area. Data on the exact time of the Moon’s entry into the zodiacal constellation can be obtained from a chisel (tear-off calendar) for gardeners or an astrological calendar.

The weather also does not vary from year to year - there are early and late springs, which is also taken into account when compiling the lunar calendar.

The timing of the moon phases does not coincide from year to year. In almost a month, the Moon passes through 12 constellations, called the signs of the Zodiac. The following year, the lunar calendar shifts by 10 days. The timing of the moon phases repeats itself every 19 years. Every year, amendments are made to the daily sowing and planting calendar for the specific shape of the season and for the lunar phase.

The lunar sowing calendar appeared a very long time ago. Man always tried to prepare in advance for the new season. People have noticed that the moon influences processes occurring in nature. As an example, these are the ebb and flow of tides, the impact on biorhythms in the human body and planting crops.

The Moon is a satellite of the Earth, the closest body to the planet, and therefore influences all the processes occurring around us. The moon has the greatest influence on water.

The main periods of the moon's movement, which influences the life of all life on the planet: new moon, full moon, periods of the waxing and waning moon. Scientists managed to find out favorable and unfavorable days for planting plants in the garden.

The moon affects water due to the force of gravity.

All plants are mostly composed of water, so by turning to the sowing calendar for 2017 for help, you will find out when the Moon can favorably “attract” plants to itself, increasing growth, and when it can “push away”, leading to illness and even death.

Maximum gravity during the full moon. This is a period of exacerbation of diseases, changes in the operation of technology, aggressive outbursts of mood in people.

It is important for the gardener not to plant planting material on this day with a strong energy impact; the plants do not take root well when transplanted.

Minimum lunar activity during the new moon. A person feels a decrease in activity, plants lose most of the strength necessary for growth, and therefore almost never become stronger in the ground.

Sowing lunar calendar 2017 formed by specialists in various fields, and is able to help modern people working in the garden save resources and time, and get a large and high-quality harvest.

Favorable and unfavorable days for planting

Plants such as wheat, cucumbers, flowers - that is, growing upwards - must be planted on favorable days on the waxing moon. And plants with tubers - potatoes, beets, parsley - growing underground, are planted during the waning moon.

Favorable days for sowing and planting in 2017





The sun is the main luminary, the giver of life. While it is in winter signs, no one is going to plow the land. In any case, on Russian territory. Nature is sleeping. With the transition of the Sun into the signs of spring, revival begins. Pisces, Aries and Taurus dictate the start of agricultural work. The sun in the signs of summer gives the beginning of the harvest, in the signs of autumn the end of work in the garden and vegetable garden. It never occurs to anyone to forget about the Sun.

Another thing is the Moon. Not everyone knows about her. But it is no less important than the Sun in the plans of our gardeners. The fact is that the Moon passes through the signs of the zodiac not like the Sun does in a month, but quickly, the Moon passes through one sign in two or three days. The appearance of the Moon in the zone of a particular sign, as well as the division of the month into lunar quarters, is called the lunar calendar.

The influence of the Moon on sowing and agricultural work

Gardeners have to take into account the phases of the Moon relative to the Sun. They are divided into four quarters. The first quarter begins with the new moon, i.e. since the conjunction of the Moon and the Sun. At this time, the Moon is not visible in the sky. The second quarter is counted from the point where the Moon establishes an angle of 90 degrees relative to the Sun. This quarter ends with a full moon. Then follows the third quarter until the angle is also 90 degrees relative to the main luminary. And the fourth quarter completes the circle. To determine what kind of moon it is today, just look at the starry sky. Look at the sky illuminated by the moon. If the lunar crescent reminds you of the letter “C”, then this is the so-called. The “old” Moon, it is waning in the light and will soon disappear completely. If in the sky you can clearly put a stick to the sickle and get the letter “R”, then this Moon is “Waxing”, it is arriving and it is moving towards the full moon.

There is no moon ─ new moon. A weak crescent appeared ─ the first quarter. The sickle grows and approaches the circle ─ second quarter. The moon is round ─ full moon. The circle is getting smaller ─ the third quarter, it has become very small ─ the fourth lunar quarter is coming to an end.

During the third and fourth quarters, activity in the underground, root part of plants increases. During this period, it is best to plant those crops whose harvest is ripening in the ground. Everything that grows underground for our food: potatoes, beets, carrots, etc. Seeds sown on the waning Moon receive a program for root development.

In the first and second quarters, the pressure comes from the roots upward, so crops that have edible “tops” do better. At the time when the Moon is waxing, plants are about to develop their terrestrial part to the greatest extent. Each lunar quarter has its own recommendations regarding the garden.

Sowing and planting should not be done on the days of the full moon and new moon. At this moment, the Moon is struck by our main luminary, the Sun. On a new moon, the Moon is not visible in the sky, it is “burnt,” but on a full moon, it is happy with everything, it doesn’t need or want anything. Development has already reached its maximum. And plants, their development and growth are under the protection of the Moon.

In the table below, the pros indicate a favorable time for a certain type of work. Cons ─ unfavorable. Empty cells ─ the influence of the Moon is neutral.

Agrotechnical work according to the lunar calendar - table

The influence of planets and zodiac signs on sowing and agricultural work

Zodiac signs are divided into four groups: air, earth, fire, water. It is clear that for seeds to germinate, water and heat (fire) are needed. Roots need air. The earth is the mother herself. Everyone is involved in this play called "The Seed and Its Fate." If a seed fell into the soil during the Moon’s passage of fertile signs, it means there will be something to look forward to as a harvest. What is the sign - such is the harvest. At the same time, since ancient times, people have noticed the connection of signs not only with the germination of seeds, but also with fertilization, weeding and the destruction of weeds and pests. Do you want a good harvest? Fertilize and water at the time when our night luminary moves through the signs of Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces. This is also a good time to plant plants and seeds. Air signs love climbing plants and various vines. But fire signs are too “hot” for perennial shrubs. Because the moisture will quickly evaporate, the “heat” will remain, and the bush or tree will dry out.

The ancients considered the sign of Cancer to be the patron of gardens and vegetable gardens. The owner of this sign is the Moon itself. Taurus is also favorable to gardeners and gardeners, for there the Moon is in exaltation. Seeds planted in Taurus develop better than others. Virgo is the patron of cultivated fields. This will be useful for farms. Libra is responsible for orchards, palm groves, and cultivated alpine hills. Vineyards and mulberry groves are the places of Scorpio. Sagittarius took over the irrigated gardens. If you are planning to create thickets of bamboo, then there is no better day for the Moon to visit the sign of Pisces.

Each zodiac sign indicates which plants they favor. This means that a seed planted in the ground at the moment the Moon passes the patron sign will bring the best harvest.

When the Moon is in Aries and Sagittarius, Capricorn, plant plants that do not have seeds. In Taurus ─ all trees and plants, except those that do not have seeds in their fruits. Planted in Gemini loves to curl and strive for heights. Smooth, large trees, cedars and mighty sugar cane will be obtained with the Moon in Cancer. Tall trees will be successful with the Moon in Leo. If you need grains and seeds or small trees, plant everything in Virgo.

Fruit crops growing on the tops will develop well in Libra. Trees of medium height are formed in Scorpio. Astrologers of the Middle Ages believed that something could be grown during the Moon in Aquarius, for example, there are recommendations to plant trees near the sea at this time. However, remember that Aquarius is still an unpredictable sign.

When the Moon passes through the sign of Pisces, plant apple trees, plum trees, pear trees, apricot trees, sandalwood trees, camphor trees and all varieties of good fruits. Planting long, even trees is also suitable.

The zodiac signs through which the Moon travels for 28 days (lunar month) have their own owners. Therefore, it is very important to know the peculiarities of the combination of the Moon with these host planets.

If you are going to grow flowers, choose not only the signs Libra or Taurus, but also the favorable position of the planet Venus.

Do you need a good root system? Throw seeds into the ground when the Moon is in Capricorn, Virgo, Taurus. Plus, a waning Moon is desirable. When it is damaged by Mars, the sprouts die from pests. With unfavorable aspects of Saturn, frosts are dangerous. If the Sun is too strong, it destroys with heat and drought. But Jupiter brings a bountiful harvest, especially if he himself is in the signs of his strength - Pisces or Cancer.

When the Moon is visiting Mercury (these are the signs of Gemini and Virgo), the harvest will be small and meager. Mercury signs are not fertile. Unless you are into growing herbs and vines. The presence of the Moon in water signs (Pisces, Cancer, Scorpio) promises a good harvest for those crops that are filled with juice and should be round, soft and juicy.
If you are planting something for prestige and beauty, the sign of Leo is suitable. For those who want the tree to live long, we recommend the sign of Capricorn. Especially if Saturn, the ruler, himself passes through the fertile places of the zodiac.

Another interesting planet flaunts in the sky - Jupiter. Benefactor. If you plant a plant at the moment when the Moon is in conjunction with Jupiter (and in 2017, Jupiter will be in the sign of Libra until autumn), then your tree or flower will grow to gigantic proportions. For Jupiter is the largest planet prone to gigantomania.

The best sign for weeding is Leo. But Aquarius and Gemini will have such an influence on the weeds that it will be difficult for them to sprout after weeding. In the sign of Aquarius, the Sun is in its symbolic fall. Therefore, avoid landings with the Sun and Moon (especially) in Aquarius. The most unfavorable days for sowing or transplanting are days of the new moon, full moon, days when the Moon passes through the sign of Aquarius.

When the Moon is not visible in the sky, you should not plant anything. You risk getting unpredictable results. But now is the time to eradicate midges and aphids. Give them a smoke bomb in the greenhouse when the Moon is about to be burned by the Sun (the day before the new moon).

To prune trees, choose the Moon to transit barren signs (Aquarius, Leo, Aries, Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius). What is cut in Aquarius will not grow back. Aquarius is the most problematic sign for plants. Weeding will also be successful; the weeds will have much less chance of reoccurring. However, useful plants should not be replanted. They will die.

In autumn it is time to harvest. Time your efforts to coincide with the appearance of the Moon in earth signs. Then the harvest will last longer. It will taste better and will not be damaged by negative factors. The juiciness of the collected fruits will depend on the Moon in Cancer, Pisces, Scorpio. But if you dig up potatoes on the Moon in these signs, they will be too saturated with water and will rot in winter.

When preserving, also follow simple star cues. Without wanting the lids to explode, do not start twisting when the Moon is in fire signs. The desire to have a supply of canned food for more than one year will lead you to canning during the Moon in Aquarius, Scorpio, Taurus. Such preparations will linger in the cellar for a long time, perhaps more than one year. Somehow it will turn out that they simply won’t get around to opening this particular jar. If the preparations are made during the Moon in the cardinal signs of Aries, Cancer, Libra, then, as a rule, they will not last even a few months, ─ they will be eaten by your household.

Sowing calendar (according to fertile zodiac signs)

Successful cultivation of fruit and vegetable crops depends on the Moon's schedule, i.e. certain work must be carried out on the appropriate days of the month. Then the yield will increase, the number of plant diseases will decrease, and the hassle from weeds will decrease.

Zodiac signs are divided into fertile and infertile. Therefore, the quality of the plants depends on what day the seeds hit the ground. Fertile signs include the signs of Taurus, Scorpio, Cancer, Capricorn, Pisces, Libra. Each of them promotes the growth of a specific group of plants. The table provides examples of the correspondence between the sign and the plant, which will develop better if planted when the Moon is present here.

Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn are involved in the distribution of forces in the roots of plants. Gemini and Libra signs are good for flowers. Seeds are signs of fire. Stems with leaves are water signs.

The table shows the best days for sowing seeds, planting and replanting crops. A list of favorable days of the winter period is given for brave experimental gardeners who want to have a “vegetable garden ─ all year round” on the windowsill. Keep in mind, however, that if the sowing days are favorable according to the Moon, the plants will not get enough sun. For example, February peppers will not develop as quickly and successfully as March ones.

The lunar calendar helps the gardener get a good harvest. If you follow natural rhythms, you can not only increase crop yields, but also protect them from diseases and improve the quality of seeds.

Moon Helper

There are four phases of the moon, each of which has a special effect on a living organism. Therefore, when compiling a lunar table, experts pay attention to the following aspects:

Complete and New Moon - periods when you should not sow, transplant or plant plants. On these unfavorable days, it is better to clean up the garden, weed the beds, or simply take a break from gardening work. During these phases of the moon, beneficial substances accumulate in the root system of plants. The process of sap flow becomes slow, stems and leaves do not grow.

Moon on the rise - intensive metabolism begins in the above-ground parts of plants. At this time, leaves, stems, flowers, and fruits grow well. In the garden, you can loosen and dig up the soil, hill up the beds, as the risk of damage to the root system is reduced.

Moon on the waning - metabolism begins in the underground part of the culture. During this period, you should not dig up or loosen the soil so as not to damage the roots of the plants. Plant in the ground those crops that are valuable for their roots. Also, on the waning Moon, you can plant and transplant seedlings.

We offer you a detailed table with favorable and unfavorable dates and months of the year. Find the current month and the date of interest, and see whether this day is suitable for planting or not.
