La
Luna as the Moon is often referred to can bring people together, make people go
a little crazy and induce birth. Forbes Living offers a few more ways a Super
Moon can affect us.
A
study from Japan tracked 1,000 births in women who had not been induced. They
found more babies were born the closer the Super Moon was to Earth, when the
gravitational pull was the greatest. A full moon had no effect.
A
Super Moon can mess up a good night’s sleep. A study tracked the sleep patterns
of participants in a sleep lap where they had no access to clocks or see outside
light. They woke and slept on a normal basis. The data collected found that in
the four days before and after a full moon, it took the test subjects longer to
fall asleep, they slept less and didn’t fall into a deep sleep. They also had
less melatonin, which helps us fall asleep.
ForbesLiving learns that a full moon can affect surgeries too. Patients who had heart
surgeries spent less time in the hospital when their surgery occurred when
there was full moon. They were also less likely to pass on from the surgery.
A
full moon and a Super Moon are beautiful, natural events in the sky. Take time
to go outside and appreciate the magnificence of one. Take your love with you.
But remember that the word lunatic is derived from the latin word luna.
