I was searching the web once and came across an interesting article on all the popular superstitions around the hair. One, in particular, piqued my interest. The author stated that, contrary to popular belief, the Moon cannot influence hair development and that all of this is just granny's story.
Of course, many scientists will walk you through lengthy and tedious computations about how this affects that and whether this influence is typically achievable. But let's take a deeper look at this idea.
When I was in high school, my physics teacher demonstrated a simple formula for how one physical body influences another physical body. Of course, she was referring to planets and other massive bodies. But there are three reasons why this law applies to all existent physical bodies, no matter how small, microscopic, or infinitesimal they are.
Reason #1: Everything in the Universe Is Connected
According to general science, every portion of the Universe is governed by the laws of existence, and that world is split into visible and invisible components. Furthermore, we all know that something tiny creates something large.
In other words, we are all made of invisible particles, and the huge world is made of small things similarly.
Consider this: if rules direct everything, and the huge and little worlds are interconnected, then we must conclude that we are also connected to the world and influenced by its broad laws of existence.
The reason one has been established.
Reason #2: Small Influences Have Big Impacts
Returning to my dear physics teacher, let us look closely at the laws of reciprocal influence.
Who said we aren't affected by the planet or planets? There are weather-sensitive people, for example, whose health is affected by sunny or rainy weather and air pressure. People are small, and the globe is vast; the planet impacts people, and the big influences the small.
So, why does something that is physically and generally attainable appear so insurmountable to self-centered humans?
Assume that reason two is also proven.
Reason #3: Stars Are More Than Just Dots in the Sky
This is my final argument for individuals who know the world revolves but are unlikely to believe it.
Astronomy and astrology exist. Each of these sciences is concerned with stars. The one forecasts the future, while the second investigates the movements of the planets. First, some of us do not consider science to be a science at all. Second, science employs so many gadgets and technological instruments that practically all of us believe it. Of course, tabloid horoscopes do not inspire confidence in the accuracy of the predictions.
But did you know that ancient Arabs used extensive and intricate computations that were written down in separate big books to determine the best future projection for a single person? These calculations typically took many weeks to complete; they required not only your exact birth date but also the exact day, hour, minute, and even second of birth of your parents, some relatives, and even strangers.
They also considered the positions of the planets, the Sun, the Moon, and the Earth itself. And these positions were calculated in the same way that current scientists do today, using fast computers and cutting-edge technology.
As you can see, astrology was originally a precise, difficult, and rigorous science that was subsequently mistreated and misled.
We now read horoscopes for pleasure and are unaware of their true history and nature. To elaborate, astronomy derives from astrology, as the first star charts and observations were imported from Arabian countries.
But I won't suggest that stars have an impact on our future. I truly mean that stars influence our health and mood through their magnetic and physical link with the Earth, which in turn affects us directly.
Even if you do not believe that stars influence you, they influence every aspect of the world in which you live, and these aspects, in turn, impact you.
Reason three is proved.
The presence of the Moon's growth or fading and its influence on hair development is explained by a hard and solid natural rule.
The Moon and the Earth are attracted to each other. The Ocean has high and low tides because the Moon approaches and departs from the Earth in a six-hour cycle. The growth-fading lunar cycle contains eight stages and has the same effect on the Earth as the six hours.
Furthermore, the Moon revolves around its axis as well as around the Earth along an elliptical orbit, so there are times when the Moon is closer to the Earth and others when it is further away. All of this leads us to the intricate eight-staged elliptical lunar cycle.
The lunar cycle causes slight changes in atmospheric pressure and the strength of Earth's gravity. This, in turn, impacts animal and human health and behavior. Doctors, for example, report an upsurge in epileptic convulsions and bleeding ulcers around the full Moon.
Because gravity is one of the Earth's most powerful forces, you can't ignore the Moon.
Considering the similarities between the natural world and the human organism, we will notice that plants and herbs develop better or worse according to the lunar cycle. Furthermore, it is standard practice for coffee traders to arrange their coffee sales by viewing the chart of the full winter moon. The relationship between the full Moon and plant development is so well established that it influences investing behavior.
The Moon has the same effect on hair growth as it does on everything else on the Earth. When the gravity changes, so do the state of your health. Your hair grows slower with reduced gravity, even if the difference is so slight that you don't notice it. It occurs at the beginning and halfway of the moon cycle, on the full Moon.
The gravity is stronger during the new and full Moon, and the hair grows faster. Thus, the best days to visit your stylist are the 3-11th and 17-24th days of the lunar cycle. During these days, your hair will grow at a higher rate.
Even if you don't believe everything that has been said, you can't deny that gravity has an effect on the human body. As a result, the Moon has certain links and effects on hair growth.
There are only a few reminders for those who hope for miracles:
- Because changes in Earth's gravity are relatively tiny, you shouldn't expect spectacular outcomes.
- If your hairdresser uses a "heavy" touch and your hair doesn't grow back in two weeks, don't expect magical hair growth.
- If your hair is in poor condition, it will take every opportunity to rejuvenate itself before growing longer.
My final reminder is that if you used to have short hair and have decided to grow it long, it would take time, regardless of when you cut it or who cuts it. Our hair grows only 5-7 mm monthly, which is a scientific truth.
So, whether or not you believe the Moon and hair growth are linked, you would agree that as long as you exist on the planet, you will feel all changes and influences caused by our planet and its counterparts, consciously or subconsciously.
