Discover the beauty and wellbeing benefits of living with the moon’s cycle
Thinking of starting a detox or diet? Wondering when to get your hair cut, your legs waxed, go to the dentist or contemplate something major? Then In Tune with the Moon 2012: the complete day-by-day moon planner for growing and living in 2012 (Findhorn Press, £8.99) will come to your rescue! This handy, full-colour volume you will give you all the hints and tips you need to live in tune with the moon 365 days a year.
We all know that the moon influences the tides, but does it really have an effect on our physical body? Michel Gros, author of In Tune with the Moon is certain that it does. In France, where the book has been printed for the last 30 years, his readers agree with him and would not consider having their hair cut or their legs waxed on an inauspicious day!
Have you noticed that at the time of the new moon you seem to have less physical energy? This is because the level of moonlight affects your physical energy. The new Moon is a good time to tackle a bad habit and start new ones! When the moon is waxing in the sky - getting bigger - we find it easier to communicate and express ourselves. This is the time when our bodies make the most efficient use of the food we eat so, if you’re inclined to put on weight this is the time to watch what you are eating. The waxing moon is also a good time to start learning new skills or start a new project.
The full moon brings extra energy and enthusiasm, which can be channeled into physical activities, or into working on an existing project. Some people find that the full moon can be very intense for them and that they don’t sleep well. When the moon is waning, getting smaller, in the sky it’s a good time for reflection, introspection and spirituality. This is a good time to start a detox programme, as it promotes the elimination of toxins from the body.
A compilation of the lunar influences on the human body, the book makes fascinating reading. Learn why there are optimal times in the cycles of the moon for fasting, detox diets and even skin treatments: Dry and combination skin treatments will be more effective when applied during a waxing moon. For those interested in a healthier diet, there is a section which includes tips on what to eat and where to source.
