If we were having coffee, I would tell you there will be a New Moon tonight or a Black Moon. This is the second New Moon this month. Along with the Black Moon there will be a partial solar eclipse. I have not noticed that the phases of the moon affect me. I have read that some believe the New Moon can cause decrease in sleep, increase in creativity, promote hair growth, and can represent new beginnings. I wouldn’t mind a thicker head of hair. Do you think the phases of the moon affect you?

Notes Tied On The Sagebrush 
I love to watch the moon wax and wane… Nature in all of its artforms is pure magic! ❤

I’ve never heard of black moon! Very interesting. I think the only way the moon affects me is that when it’s full moon it shines into our bedroom like a flashlight, and it’s usually high tide when my husband drives to town in the morning so he has to take another road.

You would definitely be made aware of the full moon with those changes. Reminds me of the film Moonstruck with Cher and Nick Cage. A really good movie if you haven’t seen it.

Amazing picture Deborah! I love to check out the first sighting of the new moon though didn’t manage it this time round. Full moon can be disruptive to my sleep!

I would like to try to do it although I have read it is hard without a telescope. That is interesting, the way the full moon affects you. I love the harvest moon, when the moon is closer to earth and looks huge.

I’ve never heard of a black moon. I don’t think the phases affect me, but I’ve never really thought about it so I don’t know.

I had not heard the New Moon called that either, but it makes sense. Black Moon sounds mysterious.

I tend to be more affected by full moons than new (dark) moons, although in retrospect, last month’s black moon and eclipse did mess with my communication skills, big time. 🙂 Fab image and I’m lovin’ the NASA website, thank you for the inspiration!

The phases of the moon and how they may affect us is so interesting. And I love all the information and images on the NASA website, too.
