Have you ever noticed that your nightmares seem to spike during certain times of the month or year? Astrology might have an explanation. The moon, in particular, plays a significant role in our emotional and subconscious worlds. During a full moon, emotions are heightened, and our dreams can become more intense—sometimes even turning into nightmares.

For example:

• Scorpio Season: Known for its intensity, Scorpio season (October-November) can bring up deep-seated fears and unresolved issues, leading to darker dreams.

• Mercury Retrograde: This chaotic period can disrupt communication and create confusion, which might manifest as stressful or unsettling dreams.

• Eclipses: Solar and lunar eclipses are often associated with major life changes, and the energy can spill into our dream world, causing vivid or disturbing nightmares.

If you’re experiencing frequent nightmares during these times, try grounding practices like journaling, spending time in nature, or using calming crystals like amethyst or moonstone. Understanding the astrological influences can help you navigate these periods with greater awareness and ease.
