From Earth’s perspective, the sun’s path across the ecliptic over a year is called the “ecliptic.” Starting from the vernal equinox, the sun’s movement along the ecliptic, every thirty degrees, forms a “zodiac sign,” corresponding to twelve constellations. When the moon and planets pass through these constellations, their gravitational pull affects Earth.

瑪麗亞. 圖恩與其團隊經過多年的研究，持續觀察天體運行的規律並記錄下這些韻律對植物生長所造成的影響，讓我們來看看這樣的韻律會對農作物產生什麼樣的影響，以及我們如何能整合本地文化與實踐。

Maria Thun and her team have spent years studying and recording the patterns of celestial motion and the effects of these rhythms on plant growth. Let’s examine how these rhythms affect crops and how we can integrate local culture and practices.
