Tonight in Minnesota, the news casters' relish in our full moon. I had to take pictures of it of course. Lunar lunacy, that's what they call the syndrome. Fact or fiction? You be the judge, but I for one believe. The "lunar lunacy effect" is how the moon and it's cycle, effects human behavior in a negative way. The term lunatic comes from the latin word
Luna, meaning moon. Wikipeda states, that insanity or temporal insomnia can occur monthly when the moon is full.
Let me take you back to my externship I fulfilled at a place called Crisis Connection. Crisis Connection is a short term phone counseling service. All of us working at mental health agencies saw a definite correlation to the full moon and our phone call percentage taking a big hike. In fact, you ask anyone in the mental health field the difference in behavior in patients when there is a full moon. Most likely you will get a stuttering giggle because it is eerie. Suicide rates attempted and accomplished sky rocket when the moon is full.
Do you believe that the full moon can create accentuated negative behavior? I want to know if you believe.
sounds eerie, yet intriguing. interesting information, and cool pictures.
ReplyDeleteIt's bizarre but who knows what is out there? :D
ReplyDeleteThanks Daphne. Yes eerie is right.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely! I also believe the moon controls women's menstrual cycles. Just think about it, if all the women are on the rag when the moon is full, there's got to be nutty results!
