I have always been someone who is super in tune with their emotions and working in the hospitality industry subjects me to every other person's emotions as well. Over the years I have developed a personal theory that I would like to share.
First off, I am what you would call an empath, meaning I feel and am affected by other people's moods and emotions. I especially feel it when those around me are sad or agitated because I think those emotional characteristics involve more energy.
Through the years I've noticed that the vibration seems to heighten around the full moon and that I get severe mood spikes. It can be an unexpected feeling of euphoria or I can want to tell people to go to hell and get away from me.
I've developed this theory that has grown and been added to as time passes. There have probably been quite a few studies done but this is purely my own analysis and not really scientific at all. I won't even go into the popular myths perpetuated by different cultures, religions, and Hollywood.
For years I would always feel the vibe of the full moon before I actually knew for a fact it was close. Mostly, I noticed that energy and enthusiasm were always high for no reason other than it was a full moon. It's best to just relax and enjoy this time. It's the two days leading up to and the second day after a full moon that have always been my concern. Most of us know that our bodies contain water, 50 to 65% is the norm . We also know that the moon controls the tides on our little rock hurtling through space. Simply put, just do the math. If a heavenly body is controlling the water on our planet through some unseen force then a logical conclusion, in my mind, is that it would also control the water in our bodies. Seems legit. Right?
Through personal experience I've noticed that the vibration or pull starts two days before the actual full moon and the second day after is strong as well. It's best to to protect yourself emotionally on these two days. I like to think of it as a wall to ward off the possible negativity. With a bit of practice and being alert for the change in the atmosphere directly affecting you, you can let the wall down a bit to enjoy the good vibes and raise it higher to block the bad.
I'll be the first to admit that this whole thing sounds like gobbledygook and feel free to leave it there or just start paying attention and see if you notice the signs. I know I'm a bit late for the recent full moon but I was on high alert. Luckily it was a fairly benign week for me because I noticed it and had myself ready but there were a few times the negative energy tried to punch through.
I hope you enjoyed my "hypothetical theory" and you're able to remember during the next cycle. The next full moon will be on July 27th and it will also be a lunar eclipse or Blood Moon visible in Asia so it's possible you will feel a stronger vibe.
Peace and good vibes to all!
Hi @the-witty-waiter. You won a prize! Check it out.

Hopefully, this will also cause some good vibes.
Very cool. Thank you for letting me know. I hope you're having a great day getting back to reality
It is a bit of a shock. It is winter here and while the coast offered the mildness of a more tropical climate, Johannesburg is in the midst of a cold spell going down to -3 degrees Celsius at night. This is very cold for us and I'm not a happy chappie...
Meanwhile, my little corner of the globe is having a major heat wave and I'm up to two showers a day. LoL. Quick question, I've signed up for steembasicincome a couple of days ago and I have followed the page on steemit, is there any other information I need to keep track of shares? I'm in the dark a bit as to how it works.
Eish. I prefer the winter. At least you can bundle up.
SBI has different pools. I think they allow 100 shares per pool. You get put in a pool and then start getting an upvote once a day from that pool. Look out for sbi1 to about sbi7 on the list of your upvotes on a post. Every time you add shares the weight of your upvote increases, not necessarily the monetary value.
Advantage: it carries on for as long as you are active on Steemit
Disadvantage: you need to post to get the upvote.
There is a google page somewhere that shows all kinds of graphs and you can trace how many shares you have. You'll have to search their posts for that. It is too much information for me.
It takes a couple of days for a new purchase to start reflecting, but once it is on, it is on. My goal is to get to a 100 shares.
Thank you for the information. I found the graphs on the @steembasicincome page. I guess I will just wait for an updated post to see if I can make heads or tails of it. Probably not, LoL.
I prefer warmer weather. I lived in the US Virgin Islands when I was in high school and Key West, Florida for eight years and I'm a bit spoiled now.

I use to have an app that tracked the moon phases. I think it was moon minder or something. I am also a bit of an empath blocking that out a bit is usually best for me. That is probably why I am very much an introvert and require time to recharge after interaction.
I use to be in food service. As an empath do you find that draining at times? I know I did.
It's definitely draining at times but I've worked in the same place for fifteen years and it's become second nature to me. I'm also an introvert outside of work but the interaction while I'm there is actually makes me seem like the complete opposite. It's a good thing for me. I have a great reason to talk to people and it's helped me immensely. I still enjoy my alone time though
Wow 15 years is a long time. Must be a great company to work for. Years ago I worked at a steak house as a server for a while. Later on I joined their corporate training team. One of the best jobs ever. Built family like relationships with team members. We watched each others children grow up together. Many of us are still friends or at least keep up with each other. The local steak house has been torn down the children grown and having families. We shared much more than just employment I almost miss it.
I think I should visit on the 27th. We can test your theory.
It's the 25th and 29th that worry me. My birthday is right there as well. The big 5-0
Interesting. Thank you for sharing.
There has been many stories and reports of the Moon's magnetic effect on the tides. So, there must be some truth in it. Some of the reports mentioned that there is an increase in violent and disorderly behaviour of mental patients during full moon.
Personally, I am not aware of the Moon's effect on my moods - not that I paid any notice to it. Maybe I should take a note of my moods and see if it has anything to do with the Moon.
Yes, people do some crazy things around the full moon but I tend to notice the intensity of emotions building, good and bad.
full moons are beautiful to look at.
beautiful!!!Upvote,Resteem.

I think the full moon can affect an individual or a group of individuals. One thing though I think a lot of it is inherited from folklore. A few more studies need to be done about the moon, almost all the studies I have ever seen, and most people have ever seen, are about how the Full Moon affects people. Not many if any studies done on how the New Moon affects people.
Actually that totally slipped my mind because I also notice the effects of the new moon. I had concentrated on the full moon phase because it was fresh in my memory
Beautiful picture, and good vibes sent to you! Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful scenery.Upvote and Resteem.
