What it means for sowing and planting

In the biodynamic calendar a solar eclipse is an unfavourable time. Its whole duration is blocked, from first to last contact anywhere on Earth, even if only part of it can be seen from where you live. No sowing and no planting during that time. Before and after, the day type applies as on any other day. A solar eclipse always falls on a new moon: the Moon stands in front of the same constellation as the Sun.
