Has your period been weird this month? The solar eclipse could be to blame.

Has your period payed you an unexpected early visit this month? Have you had menstrual cramps out of the blue? Have you been moody or overly sensitive like when you're PMSing (even though you're definitely not)? Well sista, you're not alone

Turns out loads of women have noticed what may be a strange side effect of yesterday's solar eclipse. And although it seems hard to believe this is actually a thing, a quick chat to your closest friends will tell you different - just by bringing this subject up in our office, we've heard a preaching 'saaaame'.
Before you call this nonsense and close this tab, let us serve you some facts. Weird, non-scientific facts BUT STILL...
For starters, menstrual and lunar cycles have more in common then you think. They both take approximate 28 days and they both involve tides. Throughout history these cycles were believed to be connected, so when the full moon would strike, women would gather into a "moon lodge" to sit and bleed together. Yep, you've read that right.
The solar eclipse is also (simply putting) the beginning of a new moon cycle, which [in metaphysical tradition] is believed to be the perfect time to begin menstruation. Now imagine the force of a new moon cycle during an f-cking *solar eclipse*.
