On September 10th the moon will be in opposition again.
Since the harvest is due in autumn, this moon is also known as the corn or harvest moon.
The moon not only determines the tides on earth, it also influences nature and even humans.
Even if the influence of the moon on plants cannot be scientifically proven, lunar calendars are more popular than ever among gardeners.
Accompanying symptoms such as headaches, mood swings and sleep disorders are part of it for many people, as is sensitivity.
Medical interventions may also need to be postponed to another date.
