Planetary Influences Upon Plants

One of the fundamental concepts of biodynamic agriculture is how the sun, moon and planets work through calcium and silica in the growth of plants. Ernst Michael Kranich's book describes the growth patterns, leaf placements, and flower forms of different plant families and how they are clearly connected to the same rhythmical activity of specific planets. With this study the reader can enlarge his or her perceptions of nature. Many examples and drawings are included, illustrating the connections between the orbital paths of planets and the shapes found in particular plants.
