Dont know if this answers your question, but in fact, there are several sayings or folk lore concerning the full moon. Here are a few examples for you to ponder.
* A full moon rising clear means good weather.
* Go plant the bean when the moon is light,
and you will find that this is right;
plant the potatoes when the moon is dark,
and to this line you always hark,
but if you vary form this rule,
you will find you are a fool,
if you always follow this rule to the end,
you will always have money to spend.
* "A change in the moon brings on a change in the weather"
*Full Moon in October without frost,
No frost 'till November's Full Moon.
*The full moon has been linked to crime, suicide, mental illness, disasters, accidents, birthrates, fertility, and werewolves, among other things. Some people even buy and sell stocks according to phases of the moon, a method probably as successful as many others. Numerous studies have tried to find lunar effects. So far, the studies have failed to establish much of interest. Lunar effects that have been found have little or nothing to do with human behavior, e.g., the discovery of a slight effect of the moon on global temperature,* which in turn might have an effect on the growth of plants. Of course, there have been single studies here and there that have found correlations between various phases of the moon and this or that phenomenon, but nothing significant has been replicated sufficiently to warrant claiming a probable causal relationship.

the unpredictable ways of weather, and the moon is very emotionally tied to us. The tides are affected and so is the water and blood in our bodies.
