Okay, but.....ignoring the astrology bit for a second....
--Light levels...they are a factor, just ask one of the several million people in the US alone who suffer from "seasonal affective disorder", or the "winter blahs" in plain English.
Put simply, the human brain relies on "melatonin" and other hormone-like chemicals to determine whether it is day or night, and those chemicals get released in the presence (or sensory detection, rather) of light, of a sun-like nature. Meaning somewhat higher levels of blue light than what you'd see from a "soft light" light bulb, but not as much as you'd get from a flourescent...and yes, moonlight is reflected sunlight so full moons and such count too, to a lesser degree.
Point is, if you want to screw with someone's mood and get them depressed....keep them in the dark. Make them work "graveyard shift" overnight. ;)
--Also, you may wish to look into some of the older European and Soviet/Russian studies done concerning "tidal forces" and "small-scale shifts in blood pressure" that might occur with the "lunar phases"....it isn't much, and it doesn't effect everyone, but some folks *are* sensitive to this sort of thing, seems like the ones with either really low resting blood pressure or really high resting BP are the ones most effected.
--And while you are scanning obscure links of links....try finding studies on mood changes that occur with "local magnetic shifts", either in the "earth's magnetic field" ("anomalies") or courtesy of workplace exposure to high intensity magnetism (the studies I remember were done with "Japanese passengers" on one of the "Bullet Trains", the one that used "magnetic levitation" to work).
Or....you can just do a keyword search for "Trans-cranial magnetic stimulation" as an alternative for electro-shock therapies.... :)
Point is....while the literal content of astrology may be throroughly debunked, we cannot just ignore the fact that the sun and moon *do* have forces and that those forces (light, tidal shifts in gravity, magnetic shifts from solar flares and/or geo-magnetic anomalies) can screw with our heads. Maybe. ;)

Gravitational pull and axis can have affects. If the moon can create tidal waves, and high tides the theory is why can't it affect the human body which is made up of >93% saline. (salt water) as for EMF's all kinds of lit out there that says it can affect brain waves. It's all interesting but the canons of science have not endorsed it yet, doesn't mean it isn't a reality.

Sun shows your ought to suppose complete, whole, and self-fulfilled. When you reside the features of your Sun-signal, it makes you suppose bigger approximately who you're. Moon shows your ought to suppose emotionally-risk-free. It shows the form of your computerized emotional responses to existence. The different planets constitute different demands. Someone could establish extra with their Moon than their Sun relying at the complete chart ... just about if the Moon is extra outstanding within the chart than their Sun, and this might be as a result of any quantity of causes within the chart.

forget about astrology. The moon definitely has an effect. have you heard the word, lunatic? it exists for a reason. In my experience, the young Ital-Americans of bensonhurst, Brooklyn are much more aggressive and foolhardy when the moon is full.

They don't affect us at all. Astrology is all just superstition, there's not any truth to it whatsoever.
