I dreaded the full moon while I was still working in Healthcare.
Patients have been known to howl & creep up & down hallways on the night shift.
They used to scare the crap out of me

I remember reading somewhere that the moon can have an effect on us. Some are more sensitive than others; something to do with our primordial and primitive past.

Actually it's the new moon that makes me off a bit.

And there's no excuse for THAT really! There's more light to avoid them. Maybe people take their moony wierdness rage out on unsuspecting wildlife or wildlife get stricken with moony wierdness and play dodge on the roads!

No it's the wildlife being restless and erratic I think. Maybe headlights look like the moon and the get confused?

Just a quick google, and this popped up. Fun to read. I only copied some of it.

Does the Moon Really Affect Your Moods? Your Health? Your Sanity? Your Fangs?

There's something about a full moon that conjures up spooky images of werewolves, insane ax-wielding murderers and other odd and unexplainable behaviors. Everything from horror films to Halloween cards has capitalized on this phenomenon, making it almost commonplace in our minds. But does the moon really affect human behavior, or does this notion only exist in our imaginations?

One study in Florida found that murder rates increase when there's a full moon.

The Moon and Murder

Ever heard the term "lunacy"? It's actually defined in the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary as "intermittent insanity once believed to be related to phases of the moon." In fact, in England in the 18th century, a person who committed a murder during a full moon could plead "lunacy" and get a lighter sentence.

Back in the 1970s, a study was published in the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry that found some interesting results. Homicides in Dade County, Florida appeared to rise and fall with the phases of the moon over a 15-year period. In other words, the murder rate rose with the full or new moon.

The study's author, psychiatrist Arnold Lieber, theorized that since humans are composed mostly of water (like the earth), our bodies might have "biological tides" that influence our emotions. He even wrote a book about it called "How the Moon Affects You."

Good advice....stay indoors and keep the curtains shut :egad:

I love the full moon, myself. I feel the primitive connection with the universe, and it calms me. I must be a weirdo.

I'm so glad that Mercury is going direct. Things can get back on track!
