Moon & Mood

Why does the moon mess with your mood? (No, you’re not imagining it.) This section dives into the science and symbolism behind lunar emotions.

🧠 How the Moon Affects Mood: Myth vs. Science

The idea that the moon affects behavior isn’t just woo-woo—it’s rooted in both historical belief and emerging science. Emergency rooms and birth centers often report spikes during full moons, and studies suggest lunar rhythms may subtly influence sleep and mood cycles.

But here’s the Voguegenics twist: whether scientific or symbolic, if the moon makes you feel, it’s real.

🌘 Emotional Energies by Moon Phase

• New Moon: Low energy, introspection, fresh starts. Time for solitude and intention setting.
• Waxing Crescent to Full: Building momentum, creativity, optimism.
• Full Moon: Heightened emotions, clarity, and sometimes chaos.
• Waning Phases: Reflection, rest, pruning what no longer fits.

💫 Practical Moon-Mood Alignment Tips

• Keep a moon journal to track emotional shifts.
• Avoid high-stress conversations around full moons.
• Schedule rest during waning phases.
• Ritualize new beginnings during new moons.
