"The Lunatic View" is a perspective in astronomy that suggests the Moon has a significant influence on human behavior and events on Earth. This idea is often linked to the belief that lunar phases can affect moods, health, and even crime rates. Proponents of this view argue that the gravitational pull of the Moon, similar to its effect on ocean tides, can impact human physiology. While scientific studies have produced mixed results, the concept remains popular in folklore and some alternative health practices, often associated with astrology and new age beliefs.
