About That Moon Thing

Speaking of the moon and menstrual cycles…  There are few who haven’t heard about the correlation
between menstruation and the lunar cycles. I never really paid much attention to the idea until the last couple of years. At 48, I am nearing menopause, but my cycle is still here and in full tune with the full moon.  This may seem silly and “witchy” minded, but for many women, it is a full fact - cycles tend to begin at the new or full moon. Of course, there are certain claims connected to the anomaly - women who begin their cycle when the moon is full are said to be creative and push their energies outward in the attempt to grow spiritually and mentally.  Mentorship is supposed to be another quality, but I have yet to be anybody’s “mentor” – perhaps my youngest daughter when she was very young, but that might be the mom thing.
In truth, I have always found the idea that our personalities and life cycles align with the moon and stars an interesting one. I don’t follow my horoscope or check out zodiac signs before connecting my Piscean energies with a possible incompatible sign or anything like that. 
Okay. Maybe I have looked into that kind of thing. But I don’t live by it. Still, I am interested in experimenting with the moon and my own energies. I figure it can’t hurt and maybe I can learn something. That could be the Pisces in me. *wink*
