Updated to align with the 2012 lunar cycles, this detailed guide includes information on the waxing and waning moon, the constellations and the Chinese zodiac, and an abundance of gardening tips. The effects of the moon on plants, flowers, fruits, and vegetables are explained in simple but ample detail, and recommendations for the ideal times to sow, transplant, rotate crops, and harvest are provided. This guide explains how animal husbandry, beekeeping, and even beer brewing and wine making yield better results when done in concert with the lunar cycle. In addition to gardening and farming advice, suggestions for living life in tune with the moon are offered, such as the optimum time for a haircut or even when and what to eat. An extensive color-coded daily diary section makes it easy to record reminders and daily gardening tasks. This biodynamic approach to gardening in harmony with the moon is a simple and green way to boost garden yields and live a better life.

Product description
Review
"For those of you unconvinced that this is a valid way to work your garden, bear in mind that this practice has existed for centuries and was in fact the earliest science applied to agriculture." --Todd the Big Blog of Gardening
"If you've ever used a biodynamic calendar and were mystified by the apparent complexity, In Tune with the Moon could be just the ticket for you." --Jeri Lynn Chandler, Sustainable Food
"I think that for someone with a real interest in gardening or anyone who has an allotment and is looking to maximise their vegetable growing (this book) would prove invaluable." --John Green, the Astrological Journal

I'm a keen gardener and had caught a little of an interview, I'm sure it was on Gardener's World, with a down to earth experienced gardener than swore by gardening by the moon and had done for years. It caught my attention and ever since I had been looking for advice on how to do this. This little book is a treasure and provides all the information I need in an easy straightforward manner. I spent a couple of days working through the book and getting to grips with how to use the calendar (I couldn't garden - it was snowing! in April!)and soon became familiar with how to use it. I then noted the best days to do various tasks.I have now planted summer bulbs when the moon was in constellation with Libra, I am trying to achieve a greener healthier moss free lawn and have fertilized (when moon is descending and waxing)and aerated (when moon is ascending) and look forward to the results. I also for some reason feel more relaxed and in tune with my garden. There are certain days when cultivation of the soil is not good (when the moon is at it's perigee and closest to the earth) so those are days to sit relax, reflect and enjoy the rewards. I'd recommend this to anyone who is interested in gardening with the natural rhythm of the earth.

I bought this for my partner, a keen gardener who plants by the moon every year. She says this is the best guide on the subject she has seen. Very comprehensive & informative. I look forward to bumper crops!

French gardeners are familiar with the lunar calendar for planning their crops and vegetable plots: preparing the soil, sowing, transplanting, weeding, fertilizing, harvesting, protection from pests, companion planting. Also included are lunar influences on diet, dentistry and hairdressing, viticulture and wine and beer brewing, livestock and agriculture.
We love it so that we can see when a dock or thistle day is coming for easier removal, or when is a good day to prepare our nettle concoction for fertilizer or pesticide.

I like the idea of planting by the phases of the moon but personally find it quite impractical. However, in this book there is a bit more than just planting by the moon so it was worth buying
