How does the Moon affect a person and their mood?
The Moon reliably influences tides and, according to some data, sleep; the connection to mood is often explained by self-suggestion and sensitivity to sleep deprivation.

The question of the Moon's influence on humans sits at the intersection of science and tradition. What is confirmed: the Moon governs tides, and some studies note a link between the full moon and poorer sleep (shorter and more restless). Worse sleep means worse mood and well-being the next day, and that accounts for part of the "lunar" effects. What tradition attributes to the Moon: mood swings, heightened emotions and intuition during the full moon, and energy dips during the waning phase. Many people sincerely feel this. The honest framing: there is no convincing evidence of a direct influence of the Moon on the psyche, apart from sleep—self-suggestion and attention play a large role (we notice a "lunar" mood because we expect it). It is useful to listen to yourself, but you shouldn't blame everything on the Moon. You can check the current phase in the moon calendar.
