I’ve always been one to keep track of my body’s rhythms, you know? It’s like, I feel this connection to the natural world, and I’m always curious about how it all works together. So, a while back, I started noticing this pattern with my sex drive, and it seemed to line up with the full moon. I was like, “Huh, is this a thing?”

I started digging around, reading articles and stuff, and it turns out, there’s some chatter about a link between the moon phases and our bodies. Nothing super conclusive, but enough to make me want to do my own little experiment. I grabbed a calendar, marked down the full moon dates for the year, and decided to pay extra attention to how I was feeling around those times.
I started keeping a journal, just jotting down my moods, energy levels, and, well, my libido. I did this for a few months, just to see if there was a pattern. Some full moons, I felt like a goddess, all fire and passion. I was more in tune with my body, more open to intimacy, you know? It was like everything was amplified. My boyfriend noticed it too – let’s just say he wasn’t complaining!
But then, other full moons, I didn’t feel much of a difference. It wasn’t a total bust, but there wasn’t that same intensity. It made me think, maybe it’s not just the moon, but a mix of things, like stress, hormones, and just life in general. Also at this time I also noticed that my period started on full moons a few times. I thought it was interesting.
I also tried to be more mindful during those full moon nights. I’d light some candles, take a relaxing bath, and just connect with myself. I’d reflect on my emotions and desires, and it felt like a form of self-care. I found that these little rituals helped me feel more grounded and in tune with my body, regardless of whether my sex drive was through the roof or not.
I even talked to a few friends about it, and some of them had similar experiences. One friend said she always felt more emotional and sensitive during the full moon, which sometimes led to more intense intimate moments with her partner. It was cool to hear that I wasn’t the only one feeling these shifts.

Now, I’m not saying the full moon is some magical switch that turns your sex drive on or off. But for me, paying attention to the lunar cycle has been a fun way to learn more about my body and my desires. It’s like having this secret little connection to the universe, and it makes me feel more in touch with my feminine energy.
- There might be something to this moon-sex drive connection, but it’s not the same for everyone.
- Being mindful and taking time for self-care can enhance your connection to your body, regardless of the moon phase.
- Talking to your friends about this stuff can be super validating and fun!
Here’s what I’ve gathered from my little experiment:
So, if you’re curious, I say give it a try! Track your own patterns, see how you feel during the full moon, and maybe you’ll discover something new about yourself. At the very least, it’s a good excuse to light some candles, take a bath, and have some sexy time – full moon or not!
