What Defines a “Moon Child”:
Energy Shifts: You often feel highly sensitive to lunar cycles and planetary shifts. Feeling “high”, or energised, invigorated, buzzy, manic, hyperactive etc. Or feeling twitchy, restless and not able to relax. It could be extra energy, or sensitivity too, so can also have the effect of headaches, migraines, feeling agitated and impatient too. So, shifts in your energy state over equinox periods or full moon or new moon periods.
Deep Emotions:
Moon children are highly sensitive, empathetic, and can absorb the emotions of others. Can get overwhelmed with thinking about the day you’ve just had, and need time and space to process, integrate or clear emotional energy absorbed during the day.
Night Focus:
A moon child will often find comfort, creativity, or energy in the night hours, rather than in the daytime. Receiving inspiration and ideas, having self-reflective and meditation time.
Sensitivity:
A strong connection to nature and a tendency to be empathetic and intuitive. Watching outside from the dusk and the twilight hours, watching bats flying around catching insects, listening to the wildlife, foxes, owls etc.
Contactee’s and Experiencers:
Moon children often have communication with extraterrestrials and speak of their interactions with other non-human intelligences and encounters with other non-humans.
Some will have received info that they come from a different planet or civilisation. Or have longing feelings for another world they call “home planet” and long to go back to their previous Star Families.
Psyonic Abilities:
Often a “Moon Child” will have an introvert nature and extra sensory powers (ESP), being intuitive, prophetic, insightful or predictive or have some type of natural telepathic or psychic abilities.
Being a Moon Child
There is a wonderful variety to the human expression, from very limited minds all the way through to amazingly intelligent and limitless minds. Moon children tend to be on the more intelligent scale for their age group.
Some children are just on a slightly different timeline or are able to operate best in a slightly different time zone. If you catch your child being more energetic, playing up at night or opposite, at times of full moon or phases of the moon, then don’t tell them off for being up at night thinking they are being naughty. It may be that it’s just the time zone that suits their natural rhythms best, and just not the same as the everyday people.
