Information on the Moon Tarot Readings, Reiki courses, astrology

The Moon makes a complete cycle of the 12 signs of the zodiac every 27 days 7 hours and 43 minutes, with this in mind the influence of the sign it occupies gives an emotional tone which can be favorable or unfavorable in your life depending on your particular sign.

Skeptics have often remarked that it’s unadulterated rubbish;-A simple answer is to explain it in ways that they might understand through a little bit of science or as it's normal name - common sense.

Okay think of it this way the Moon has long been recognized and proven to have a physical effect over large amounts of water (which make up 70% of this planet). This influence through the gravitational pull gives us the tides and their timing can be plotted as there is natural cycle which forms a pattern.

Now following this through fairly logically our bodies are made up of approx 66% of WATER !!!!!!

Amazing to think that the people believe the moon wouldn’t affect us, it’s funny but many years ago Doctors were trained in Astrology and back then recognized the effects of the moon in it’s different phases through the 28 day cycle when operating on a part of the body ruled by it’s zodiac sign. This is well documented if anyone wants to research it and you will find it still stands to this day as being correct.

So back to how the Moon’s influence shows in our day to day lives, bear in mind everyone has their own cycle (moods) which is how biorhythms are established for the individual. This is a general explanation so you can work out how each 2 and a bit days influence you personally, mark it on your moon calendar and begin to see the patterns and moods for yourself.

Meanings of the Moon through the different phases and when used with the signs it gives extra influence;-

Anything that is Regenerative for the body, any special effort made will have good results. Great time to start new activities and begin new projects especially things that are ruled by the sign it occupies.
