Full Moon Ion Ef f ect Why does all hell seem to break loose on or around the Full Moon? The ter m Lunatic is der ived f r om the wor d Lunar (Moon).
Sim ply put; Hor monal r eactions to incr eased positive ions in the air (Full Moon Ef f ect) cause hy per activity, de pr ession, violent behavior , r oad r age, higher occur r ences of migr aines and asthma. Even bees ar e k nown to sting without pr ovocation on higher positive ion r atios.
In some Middle East countries, Judges are more lenient on criminals if the crime was committed during increased positive ion wind conditions.
These per iodic winds blowing in f r om the deser t ar e called the Shar av. Univer sity studies in Isr ael concluded that incr eased positive ions can cause an incr ease in violent tendencies. The Biochemical React ion
Just a bout all the air you br eathe has some quantity of Aer o-Ions. Ions ar e char ged par ticles in the air (between a f ew hundred to a f ew thousand per cubic centimeter). Some ions ar e negatively char ged (Negative Ions) and some positively char ged (Positive Ions). Af ter year s of r esear ch ar ound the wor ld, Ion Scientists have deter mined over and over that an im balance in the r atio between Positive and Negative Ions has a pr of ound ef f ect on both your mental and physical well being. If you br eathe lar ge amounts of positive ions without an equal amount of negative ions, you will actually become lethar gic and in some cases sick (high positive ion concentrations in the air are associated with the f ull moon). Air containing mor e negative ions and f ewer positive ions has shown to be benef icial and without side ef f ects. That is why negative ion generators ar e sold ar ound the wor ld. 75% of the gener al po pulation r eact f avor a bly to negative ions but ar e adver sely af f ected by positive ions, while the other 25% r eact in the o p posite way, f inding higher positive ion days eu phor ic and higher negative ion days bor ing. These peo ple com pensate f or the str ess caused by positive ions with suf f icient adr enaline pr oduction. In other wor ds, 75% of the gener al po pulation goes into dif f er ent r anges of de pr ession and 25% become hy per active. We ar e all af f ected somewhat by higher positive ion r atios. Ther e ar e no side ef f ects f r om negative ions. Ion r esear ch f r om ar ound the wor ld has pr oven that Ser otonin over pr oduction stimulated by higher positive ion r atios is the pr imar y cause f or many of the pr o blems associated with positive ions: In the 25% of the gener al po pulation dur ing higher positive ion r atios, shor t ter m incr ease in pr oductivity occur s (attr i buted to hy per active adr enaline production). Af ter extended ex posur e or dur ation to positive ions, this incr ease in pr oductivity quick ly tur ns into poor per f or mance (attr i buted to a weak ened or exhausted adr enaline gland). Serotonin side ef f ects
Once the adr enaline gland has become exhausted, the body then must deal with the excess ser otonin. Without adr enaline to balance the ser otonin side ef f ects, the ser otonin becomes a ma jor antagonist to both man and animal. Recent po pular antide pr essants wor k by tr igger ing mor e ser otonin in the br ain and body.
On the other hand, ion science has discover ed that this same neur o-hor mone, ser otonin. Is the cause of man y of the pr o blems? As stated pr ior in this ar ticle, ser otonin tr igger s adr enaline which pr o ba bly accounts f or the initial antide pr essant ef f ect. Once the adr enaline gland is exhausted, usually in just a f ew shor t months, the ser otonin side ef f ects begin to show u p. Lists of side ef f ects f r om r ecent ser otonin tr igger ing antide pr essants ar e as f ollows: Anxiety, ner vousness, tr emor s, sweating, dizziness, lightheadedness, dr y mouth, u pset or ir r itated stomach, a p petite loss, nausea, vomiting, diar r hea, stomach gas, r ash and itching. Less common side ef f ects include changes in sex dr ive, im potence, a bnor mal dr eams, dif f iculty concentr ating, acne, hair loss, dr y sk in, chest pains, aller gy, r unny nose, br onchitis, a bnor mal hear t r hythms, bleeding, blood pr essur e changes, headaches, f ainting when r ising suddenly f r om a sitting position, bone pain, bur sitis, twitching, br east pain, f i br ocystic disease of the br east, cystitis, ur inar y pain, dou ble vision, eye or ear pain, con junctivitis, anemia, swelling, low blood sugar , and low thyr oid activity. In addition, many other side ef f ects af f ecting vir tually ever y body system have been r e por ted. They ar e too numer ous to mention. Positive ions also have a serotonin triggering ef f ect
Side ef f ects f r om positive ions winds (such as the Chinook wind in Calgar y and the Santa Ana winds in souther n Calif or nia) com piled by a Swiss meteor ological r e por t in 1974 ar e as f ollows:
Physical side ef f ects: Body pains, sick headaches, dizziness, twitching of the eyes, nausea, f atigue, f aintness, disor der s in saline (salt) budget with f luctuations in electr olytical meta bolism (calcium and magnesium; cr itical f or alcoholics), water accumulation, r es pir ator y dif f iculties, aller gies, asthma, hear t and cir culator y disor der s (hear t attack s a p pr ox. 50% higher ) low blood pr essur e, slowing down in r eaction time, mor e sensitivity to pain, inf lammations, bleeding em bolisms of the lungs, and thr om bosis. Psychological side ef f ects: Emotional un balance, ir r itation, vital disinclination, com pulsion to meditate, exhaustion, a pathy, disinclination or listlessness towar d wor k ( poor school achievement), insecur ity, anxiety, de pr ession (es pecially af ter age f or ty to f if ty), r ate of attem pted suicide a bout 20% higher , lar ger num ber of admittances to clinics in dr ug cases. Positive Ion Winds Winds with high levels of Positive Ions ar e pr esent in sever al ar eas of the wor ld, but k nown by dif f er ent names, de pending of the countr y, is associated with signif icant physiological and psychological ef f ects u pon human po pulations. Ty pically this wind is hot and dr y, and br ings with it, an invasion of positive ions.

Negative ion gener ator s have pr oven to be a much better antide pr essant, since the negative ions allow the body and br ain to conver t excess ser otonin into a har mless chemical (k nown as 5-HIAA) 6. Negative ions also allow the body to build u p adr enaline r eser ves and have no adver se side ef f ects. De pr essed peo ple tend to notice an immediate ef f ect with antide pr essants because of the hy per activity of the adr enaline gland. With negative ions, because ther e is no o bvious immediate ef f ect, many peo ple think that they ar en't doing anything. Negative ions should be consider ed an ef f ective long-ter m antide pr essant. They ar e not an a bsolute cur e to de pr ession. They do counter act many of the pr o blems associated with de pr ession. On the other hand, if we use the shor t ter m ser otonin tr igger ing antide pr essant medication, r elief will come, but only f or a shor t while. In the long ter m this medication contr i butes to the r eason behind much of the de pr ession in the f ir st place.
Since the har mf ul ef f ect of the new and f ull moon is due to a s pir itual reason, only s pir itual r emedies or s pir itual pr actice can hel p in giving pr otection. At a wor ldly level, it is best to avoid tak ing im por tant decisions or buying-selling on these days as ghosts can af f ect thr ough these media. Incr ease the quantity and quality of s pir itual pr actice f r om 2 days pr ior to and continue f or 2 days af ter f ull moon and new moon days. It is also benef icial to chant Name of God as per r eligion. Dur ing the waning phase of the moon, i.e. the per iod between f ull moon day and new moon day, as the size of the moon pr ogr essively r educes, the su btle basic ra ja-t ama f r equencies emanating f r om it pr ogr essively r ise. This is because the dar k er side of the moon pr ogr essively incr eases. Hence to pr otect oneself f r om the adver se inf luence of this enhanced ra ja-t ama, it is im por tant that we ste p u p our s pir itual pr actice dur ing this per iod. Dur ing the waxing phase of the moon, we should at least tr y to sta bilise the incr eased ef f or ts we had put in, in the ear lier f or tnight. This is so that we can again r enew our ef f or ts at enhanced s pir itual pr actice in the next waning phase of the moon.
