Embracing the Wisdom of the Universe!
Just as ancient civilizations looked to the skies for guidance, today’s biodynamic cultivators recognize the profound influence of celestial bodies, particularly the Moon, on plant life and cultivation practices. They carefully consult the biodynamic calendar to align their agricultural activities with the rhythms of the cosmos, optimizing growth and vitality.
That’s why they carefully consult the biodynamic calendar (created by Maria Thun) to align their agricultural activities (eg sowing, pruning, harvesting) with the rhythms of the universe and the positions of the astral bodies, optimizing the growth, vitality, health and resilience of their crops.
As the Moon traverses the zodiac, it channels the elemental forces associated with each constellation, influencing different parts of plants. During the ascending phase, the Moon stimulates growth above ground, while the descending phase enhances activity below the soil surface, empowering roots and nourishing the plant.
