In our file below, you will know all about the scientifically proven effects of the new moon, its meaning, dates and times of the next ones of the year.
What effect does the new moon have on sleep?
If the new moon marks the start of a new lunar cycle, it would also affect our sleep, scientists say. Indeed, a study carried out by researchers from the Sahlgrenska Academy of the University of Gothenburg in Sweden between January 2007 and November 2009 noted “a lengthening of REM sleep duration by 30 minutes” during the new moon phase. Conversely, during the full moon phase, the study observed “a 25-minute decrease in sleep time,” the review reports Science and Future.
What effect does the new moon have on the tides?
The new moon also influences the tides. High tides always occur during syzygy periods, when the moon and the sun are in conjunction (new moon) or in opposition (full moon) in the same axis with the earth.
What is a New Moon?
The new moon, one of the four phases of the moon based on its positioning facing the sun, occurs when the moon is positioned between the earth and the sun. Thus, its face visible from the earth is not at all illuminated by the sun. It is then difficult to observe with the naked eye, but is an interesting phase for astronomical observation, because the light of the moon interferes with the observation of the sky. The return to this same phase of the moon (synodic period which corresponds to the duration between two consecutive identical phases of the Moon) occurs approximately every 29 days and 12 hours.
