Moon and body: a hidden connection

If the Moon can lift entire oceans with the force of its tides, how can we think it doesn’t influence us as well? Our body is made up of over 60% water: a miniature ocean, refined and sensitive. It is therefore not illogical to imagine that the same currents moving the seas may also ripple through the depths of our physiology and emotions. Modern science is beginning to recognize surprising correlations: variations in sleep during the full moon, hormonal fluctuations, even subtle shifts in heart rhythms. Phenomena that tradition already knew well: ancient agricultural calendars followed the lunar phases to sow and harvest, while Hippocratic physicians observed the Moon to understand the course of illnesses. In the end, it’s not about believing or not believing: the fact is that our culture has trained us to dismiss certain topics as superstition or to consider them valid only if “certified by science." We live in a binary logic: either proven, or nonsense. But what if we stopped limiting ourselves to this simplification and began to truly ask how much we are influenced by external forces, subtle yet constant? Perhaps we would discover that the real limitation is not the lack of evidence, but our inability to explore what we were never taught. And if we learned to consciously use these dynamics, we could turn an invisible conditioning into an extraordinary advantage.
