Hi all- Question- can someone explain exactly why

it's best to rest on the new moon days. I know I felt

awfully unsteady the day before this recent one, but

wasn't sure if it was an effect of that or

not.<br><br>Also, Many thanks for the site and for putting up the

Moon Day chart.<br><br>Best<br><br>yogageek

Hi yoga geek,

I don't know anything for 100%, but the best explanation I've heard

is that the body is primarily composed of water... which of course is

affected by the moons. The full moon means that rising energy is

peaking so the practitioner may push themselves too hard, and cause

injury. The new moon is the reverse, 'peaking' falling energies means

that your body is at it's least physical and so your regular routine

may be too strenuous, and cause injury.

Maybe modified routines could be practiced on these days? (but don't

tell Guruji!)
