Lunar Influence – How does it Affect Us? (21)

Introduction

Following on from the previous posts this post will look at how the Moon actually influences in terms how we actually feel.

A Psychologist’s Experience

We can easily find an answer to this question of what the Moon’s influence actually like in us, by simply observing how we feel physically, vitally, emotionally and mentally during various moon phases, paying special attention to the new and full moon phases. However to have another person explain what they have observed makes our own observations more solid.

So here below is an excerpt from a website where a psychologist’s experiences were described.

“Sydney psychologist Adam Fitzpatrick, of Essential Psych Solutions, said he could predict the clients he would see in any given week based on the size of the moon.

He said some patients were less in control of their emotions while others just felt "not on their game" when there was a full moon.

"I know at my own practice I see a lot more emotional distress, relationship problems, communication problems around the time of the full moon," he said.

"People are a lot more emotional, a lot more needy, they just can't handle their impulses (as well as they normally can)."

He said his advice to people who felt particularly vulnerable around the full moon was to "batten down the hatches" and ride the storm.”

Conclusion

My personal experience and observations of others actually coincides with the observations and experience of the psychologist that I have cited in this post. These observations also fit in very well with classic esotericism, where the Moon agitates the impulses and emotions of the human being.

So these observations may well help you to hone in on the effects of the Moon on your psychosomatic system.
