How are you affected by a full moon?

For me the most powerful affect the moon has is when the moon is new, probably because I was born on a new moon. females, anyway, are so governed by phases of the moon that the phase of the moon when we are born controls our cycles and birthing times. Apart from that full moons affect fluid- so surgeries done during full moons ar more likely to involve a greater loss of blood than at other times. Or so I've heard. Never performed any (yet) so I can't be sure, LOL. But we pointyblackhat types cast our magickal circles at the full moon time, because power is so intensified then. Do you feel the affect of it yourself?

I don't tend to be doing circles. I'm more a Traditional Witch than a Wiccan type. but I do sometimes feel quite noticeably flightier. I prefer the dark moon. it's a more useful time.

certainly is. you can really think straight then, and get things properly sorted out. Full moon, I'm a lot more alert and perky, but my brain is like a grasshopper. it just jumps from thing to thing, because I notice things too easily.

I feel calm..slightly awestruck. I always have I guess, maybe 'cause all the memories I have of it. It's almost like seeing a familiar face. I feel more..connectd. That's the only word I can think of the describe it lol. And too, like Highflying said, I feel a bit wilder. I spend more time outside..and I am feeling a bit more 'witchy' during those times, heh. The pull to study or work magick. Or both, heh.

YESSSS. don't you just love it. Long before I ever even studied the Craft- I loved the full moon, thinking it the most beautiful and for some reason which in those days I didn't understand- a reassuring sight. that last part I also feel about snowfall. Nothing in nature gives me such good feeling, such connectedness. Snow full moon. ;)

I tend to become more 'wild' I like staying out more and can't sit still. I usually get kinda restless during a full moon. Other than that, I really don't feel too many effects of one.
