Yet, I, like so many other anglers, rarely find any consistent correlation with most of these references.įinally, back in 1976, when I got into the fishing guide business full time, I really made it a point to compare my fishing catches to a number of popular solunar charts. All of these tables, charts, and calendars claim to predict daily feeding activity of fish with accordinance to moon and solar influences. Nearly every fishing publication today publishes some kind of monthly solunar table, moon chart, activity calendar, action graph, or other similar version. It’s not hard to find a solunar table of some kind.

Yet as much as pro anglers endorse the effectiveness of moon charts and outdoor publications of every niche’ continue to print them, rarely does either source validate these solunar claims with data.

Alabamaįull Moon or Dark Moon? Major and minor solunar periods? Which is best? Does any of this moon mumbo jumbo make any real sense nor does it actually work? These are legitimate questions asked by thousands of anglers each year, and they deserve concrete answers backed up by some bonafide data.

Submerge yourself in the pull of the full moon.

But I recommend gentle baths over untamed ragers. I’ve spent many full moons at surreal, hedonistic bacchanals, fêtes that gave Caligula a run for his money and left me exhausted, overloaded, and empty. Under a full moon, things are bold and out of control it’s a mayhem we can’t avoid and can barely plan around: When the truth is fully illuminated, it’s rarely it as we imagine it to be. I defer to a no-frills app like The Moon when I’m quickly checking lunar phases, and the old-school paperback Farmers’ Almanac for everything else.) (There are many tools that will tell you the exact time the moon blares the brightest every month, sometimes with fun names and good advice for growing vegetable gardens. If you’re lighting a candle or performing some sort of complicated ceremony in Stevie Nicks velvet, you should try to schedule this spell so that it concludes as close as possible to the exact moment the full moon perfects but no later. Instead, initiate these rituals in the week preceding the full moon’s total exposure. That’s because the full moon is manifestation itself: The power is too potent to harness. If you want to do some woo-woo, New Agey shit, know that you can’t really manifest under a full moon. Impulse rules fire signs, setting the stage for risky, erratic fire full moons. When the Moon heads to a fire sign (Aries, Leo, or Sagittarius), things don’t flow - they crackle. Air obscures our perception of the Moon, sometimes completely, so when the full moon is in an air sign (Gemini, Libra, or Aquarius), energy becomes confusing or fleeting, and gossip flowers. The earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn) have practicable, palpable connections to the moon, and under an earth full moon, we can get shit done or expect obvious changes to our material world. Drama, tears, and childhood traumas thrive in the shine of a watery full moon. The moon is a tidal force, forever wedded to the element of water, and she’s at her most passionate and personal when she enters one of the three water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces).

The full moon doesn’t just force us to act unhinged - she exposes secrets and reveals hidden agendas. Things that were shrouded in darkness and shadow reveal themselves, and conflicts come to a head. When the moon is full, her qualities are magnified and our feelings intensify. Left untamed, it can trigger our most feral inner child. Sometimes lunar energy translates to softer, maternal, self-protective instincts. It charges across the sky far faster than more distant celestial bodies, and it activates our emotional ego. In astrology, the moon rules our gut feelings. Cleaning up the mess the next morning would suck. Each room would be overstuffed with heated fights, volcanic breakups, and hysterical confessions. The mood lighting would sink every stray bottle and balloon into oversaturated Suspiria hues. The music would bump so loud the walls would shake and the neighbors would threaten to call the cops. Girls would be puking on the lawn outside. If the full moon were a house party, it would be totally out of control. In the depths of a jungle unpolluted by electricity, a full moon bathes flora and fauna in a night light so bright the leaves glow. Unless the sky is swamped in smog or cloud cover, it’s impossible to ignore. Photo-Illustration: by Preeti Kinha Photos: Getty ImagesĪ full moon is obvious.
