Summary: Ancient tradition explained & made practical & believable
Comment: Have you ever picked up a Farmer's Almanac and wondered how in the world it's used, much less understood? Now armed with Pyle and Reese's clear, concise and rational explanations of the effects of the moon's signs, you can till, weed, plant, water, even mow the lawn and get your hair cut under the most favorable conditions. Their Planting Guide gives what phase of the moon is best to plant different vegetables and flowers and which moon signs are most suitable. It is easy to follow and the theory explained simply and convincingly. Other charts include Good Companions and Bad Companions which help one lay out a garden plan which will make everyone happy. For example, I put in bush beans around my strawberries. The beans provide nitrogen for the berries. Another chart gives natural repellents to pests, such as radishes to repel cucumber beetles. However, all this is just an added benefit of the book. The real heart is the moon sign explanations and how to apply the phases of the moon and the zodiac signs to successful gardening. Part of the authors' impetus to write the book was a quote from Dr. Robert Millikan, Nobel Prize Winner (Physics, 1923):"I do know that if man if not affected in some way by the planets, sun and moon, he is the only thing on earth that is not." Here's a free tip. If you want to slow the growth of your lawn, mow in the waning moon (after the full one) in Leo, Gemini, Virgo, Aquarius, Sagittarius or Aries (in declining order of effectiveness). Happy gardening with the moon.
