Moon calendar for cutting nails: December 2026
The old moon calendars name good days for cutting fingernails and toenails too. They depend mainly on the sign the Moon is in.
Good days
Thu 10, Fri 11, Sat 12
When the Moon is in Capricorn, nails are said to stay firm and strong after cutting. Traditionally, Capricorn stands for everything that gives the body structure and support.
Better not
Tue 15, Wed 16, Thu 17, Tue 22, Wed 23
When the Moon is in Pisces or Gemini, the old calendars advise against it: the nails are then said to split easily.
The Moon's position is computed for every day at noon, Central European Time. The rules are tradition, as the old moon calendars hand them down, not a promise. The whole calendar: moon calendar.
