Thread: Lunar Phases

I've thought about the moon before and if it could effect Lucid Dreaming...scientifcally, it shouldn't, because Lucid Dreaming is basically you being aware you are dreaming and shouldn't have anything to do with where the moon is.

It would be intresting to see some stats on this. We could run a little experiment for two lunar months or whatever and see if the amount of LD's rises or changes with the phase of the moon.

Someone asked this before and they said they noticed the same thing. At the time I thought about it and it seemed like it was the other way around for me. I had more lucid dreams during the new moon and none during the full moon. It was like 2 lucids night dreams 3 nights in a row. Well since then I checked and I guess it was just a coincidence because it hasn't seemed to have any effect on me since then.

I agree with Kaniaz on this one, I don't think the moon affects dreaming but it would be nice to see the results if a test was ever preformed...

who knows, maybe the moon just effects certain people. hospitals receive more patients and murders, suicides, arson, things of that nature are always increased on full moon nights. it messes wit peoples brainwaves so i dont see why it wouldnt mess wit some peoples dreams.

i agree with you smoovD. And not only humans are affected by the moon, also animals act different depending on the moon.

If somebody stuck an extra moon up there it would be intresting to see if the animals went all weird. But we don't have an extra moon anywhere.

I am sure it has an effect, not because it is there, but because it affects the amount of abmient light present at night.

Also as was mentioned, animals are more active, which makes the dogs bark, the noise of which affects how soundly you sleep.

I know I hate clear nights when the moon is full. Seems like I have to get up at two or three times during the night to yell at the dogs.

yeah, lemme take the spare moon i gots in my back pocket and put it up there to see what it does

i've always felt that the moon had a effect on my dreams but i don't have any sound proof. it is some thing i an curious about though and will do some research.

thanks

Oooh my mom bought this thing online that senses when dogs bark and it emites and ultra high pitches frequency that makes the dogs go insane...we dont have dogs barking or howling anymore needless to say, I forget what its called but you should look into it
