Lunar Phases

Forget manifestation. Forget magic. Here's what actually happens when you align your goals with lunar phases: Your sleep, mood, and energy are genuinely affected by lunar cycles.

The honest answer? Both. And neither. It's more interesting than a simple yes or no. Here's what we know, what we believe, and why the distinction matters. What The Research Actually Shows Let's start with the measurable part. Scientists have spent years studying whether lunar cycles influe
