Everything you need to know about today’s CRAZY AF supermoon

The THIRD supermoon of 2016 is occurring today, and while they’re astounding to the naked eye, looks can be deceiving. Let’s hope it doesn’t mess with you… too much

Miss FQ caught up with spiritual personal assistant aka PA for your soul, international columnist, #1 best-selling author, and spiritual philanthropist, Emma Mildon to find out how and why supermoons affect our behaviour and emotions.

“Full moon got you tossing and turning at night? Becoming a little touchy, sad face emoji, or ‘OMG I swear I’m hormonal cray-cray’? Good news is it’s totally normal,” tells Emma.

‘Why?’ you ask. Here is some luna news you may not know…

“The magnetic pull of ocean tides is connected to all things moon. Whether the moon affects us as humans (because we’re made up of 70% water, FYI) has been a long standing debate between science geeks and spiritual peeps. This water bound ‘lunatic’ is one of the oldest of folklore and mythology. It flows through our classic literature, poetry and music – from werewolves to the man in the moon.

“Even today, you could ask police officers, doctors, nurses, even prison guards who would swear that full moons without a doubt make people stir crazy. Some biologists believe this is because our ancestors were most vulnerable in the nights of a full moon, being visible to night predators which could suggest our biological rhythms which are commonly controlled by hormonal changes, which are in part regulated by external stimuli such as light or temperature. Not only on a tidal level is the ocean influenced by the moon, but also follow the lunar cycle of 29.5 days with many marine species spawning on a full moon. It seems nature – be it insects, marine life, or even our restless souls – all stir when the moon pulls our inner water goddess in.”

Interesting… does this mean we can call ourselves mermaids now?!

So, what should you do when a supermoon is in full force? How can you help yourself when you feel like you’re going stir crazy?

“Full moons are a time to reflect, and release. To let go of any stale vibes you have been hanging onto,” says Emma. “So, ditch the ex-hang ups. Any of the guilt trips you have been holding on to. And embrace some reflect and recharge you time over full moons.”

If that’s not a sign to charge your crystals, plug in your headphones, binge watch your favourite TV show and spend some serious R+R time online shopping, we don’t know what is.
