WAXING
PERIOD = Moonlight INCREASING
THE PROPOSITION:
An ancient, classical method recognizes the different qualities of the WAXING and WANING periods of the Moon. Around the Full Moon period the Earth receives more light at night. As a result the subtle qualities of the Moonlight are not bleached out by the Sunlight and therefore the vitalizing of all liquids by lunar forces can come to a greater expression.

WANING
PERIOD = Moonlight DECREASING
THE PROPOSITION:
When Moon Light starts to decrease so do the upward drawing forces and the Earth’s gravitational field becomes more dominant. Then the Moon is closer to the Sun and is mainly above the horizon during the day. The subtle lunar light is desiccated (dried out) by solar might. The pendulum swings in favour of gravitational forces.

On the
left we see a symbolic impression of the highly
charged fluid force field that comes as consequence
of the FULL MOON. There is liquid in the sap of
plants, rivers, oceans and atmosphere. All liquids
respond to this Moon force field phenomenon.
GARDENER’S ACTIVITIES
The gardener uses this period of enhanced growth forces for plants that have their main development above the soil surface such as lettuce or tomatoes. Sap flow towards the upper reaches of the plant are stronger during this waxing period. Good & rapid seed germination rates can be expected at these times and there is evidence to suggest that the plant will go on to maintain this rapid growth throughout its life cycle. Harvests for immediate consumption have excellent taste but do not store well. If conditions are dry this is a good time to water because lunar forces cannot be harvested without a water matrix. In excessive wet conditions take action to prevent fungal attacks.

On the
left we see a symbolic impression of the New Moon
above horizon during day time travelling with the
Sun. The fluid force field has now diminished in
strength and plant sap is no longer as vital and
the plant is more Earth bound. The gardener
responds to this.
GARDENER’S ACTIVITIES
Growth & fertility forces are still at work but somewhat mitigated. Moisture vitality is low and the Earth’s gravitational pull is strong. The gardener now plants seeds for plants that mainly express themselves below the soil surface such as carrots, potatoes and nitrogen fixing legumes. Germination tends to be slower. Fruits harvested at this time tend to store longer given that they have less moisture in them. This is a good time to make and apply compost. Overall this is an ‘earthy’ time so the gardener’s activities are more directed towards the soil. Prepare beds for planting during the forthcoming WAXING cycle. While one Moon phase trend is active the gardener anticipates the next.
