ASTRO GARDENING

May your blooms shine with the moon
and your peas shoot for the stars!

I’m an avid gardener (Taurus moon) and for many years have studied the moon cycles and applied it to my gardening knowledge.
I studied garden design with the RHS (Royal Horticultural Society) and have a fascination with how the heaven and earth are so delicately and intrinsically intertwined.

I’ll be adding to this page over time as I explore the astrological significance and relation of the plants and planets and how we can work in harmony with them like our ancestors used to. By working with the lunar cycles we can optimise growing by carefully planning when we sow, plant and harvest our crops and flowers. You can read my blog on working with the lunar cycles for planting here.

as above… so below…

Perpetual Calendar - Moon Gardening Wheel

Garden with the moon. Be in tune with nature and plant with the cycles of the moon. As the moon waxes and wanes through each cycle it affects how plants grow and the water table as the moon’s gravitational pull has an effect on our earth. By using this simple guide you can plan your months growing and harvesting in accordance to the phases of the moon in order to give optimal results.

Constructed of two wheels it is easy to use and also is perpetual so will be of use indefinitely. This handy tool is set each month by checking the new moon date and lining up the new moon symbol with the date that month. You then follow the wheel from new moon starting point and sow and harvest according to the instructions. This is a simple but fabulous guide to help guide you through the growing season.

MOON in heaven's garden, among the clouds that wander,
Crescent moon so young to see, above the April ways,
Whiten, bloom not yet, not yet, within the twilight yonder;
All my spinning is not done, for all the loitering days.
