I woke up this morning feeling ludicrously randy. I honestly havn't stopped thinking about sex all day. My poor husband is going to get one hell of a shock when he gets home and is jumped!
Anyway - i couldn't work out why the hell I was feeling like this until I saw on 'This Morning' that a full moon does actually make some people slightly mad and it was even admissable in court up until the 1940's!!!!!!!
I did send them an email but not sure if they read it out. Does the full moon do anything to you........ahwooooooooo!?
(Also if anyone watched TM I'd love to know if they did read out my email)

Yes it does, I'm an Epileptic and I am guaranteed to have a seizure when there is a full moon. I've been an Epileptic 20 years and there is ony 5 times or less that I haven't had a fit when there's been a full moon. A lot of people think I'm mad but there's something in the theory behind full moons.

A very high % of our body is water. If the Moon is able to have a gravitational or pulling effect on the oceans and seas then you can be assured that the Moon also have an effect on us. This can show in many forms. Going mad, births, deaths, ovulation etc. Perhaps you are also ovulating. When women ovulate their desire for sex can increase. Farming in the old days was based on this and before contraception, people used the Rhythm method, which meant they followed the cycle of the Moon if they wanted pregnancy or wanted to avoid it. Of course it is not a good form of contraception because, even though we are affected by the Moon, we can have ovulation at different time etc.
In the meantime, enjoy your evening with your 'poor' husband, I'm sure he'll be happy about it. Just some advice: if somebody promises you something at Full Moon, do not take it as it is, you will be let down. At the same time, try not to make decisions on the night of Full Moon, wait until next day.

I get my period, so yeah, it does affect me.
I think it's been proved that it affects people in general. Unpremeditated violent crimes go up, I think, when the moon is full. It used to be explained it away as being because the night is lighter and so more people would be out and about, but I think a study actually showed it.
Normally I scoff at any form of superstition but I don't think this is superstition. And I don't think it's a self-fulfilling prophecy. It makes sense, if you think about it, that the moon which affects the tides (pull of gravity is stronger) would affect people who are what, 70% water?

Hi Debbie,
not only is it a Full Moon tonight, but for us Pagans it is the Sabbat of Imbolc the first day of Spring. We are celebrating by having a special meal and a magic Balefire in the Garden afterwards. Blessings Marcus XX

Yes. I actually think some people get really nuts during the full moon.

I too get very excited but not in the sense you mean. I came out of work this evening and it was facing me, I love the full moon, I clapped my hands and started giggling. I've always loved the full moon and sing my full moon song ... It's a full moon, Hello Mr. Moon. ... Hey, I'm aspergic.

I get affected by the full moon - I can't sleep properly and feel restless, but tired at the same time - makes me a bit mad. However, my hubby probably wishes I had your reaction!

I woke up feeling the same
Also feels like spring today to and not winter
Think there is something to it all we have forgotten in our modern times
(its a fact that the police and ambulence crews know they have more to deal with on full moons)
