“Why are you acting so crazy?” I asked my husband about fourteen years ago, before he was my husband. “Because of the moon!” he replied.
There was a full moon due in a few days, and this was my first introduction of the moon affecting people. I questioned him more and needed convincing. He told me that police presence on the streets increases on a full moon as stuff tends to kick off under the moon’s power.
I still didn’t believe him, I’d never experienced or witnessed it, it sounded like rubbish. I knew I had my own monthly cycle, and would feel agitated and highly strung before each period, but he was a man, and he was talking about the moon which is a long way away from us.
