The story
It’s a familiar sight in the night sky. The Moon can appear small when it’s high in the sky, and then at other times much bigger when it’s just above the horizon. There are lots of theories why we perceive it this way, but none have been able to explain it fully. It’s not as straightforward as not having a reference point when the Moon is high above the horizon.
The idea that a full Moon may result in poor sleep is a consistent theme, but the scientific evidence remains inconsistent. Studies have also failed to find a correlation between the Moon and mental health. In Ancient Egypt the sun and the moon were regarded as the eyes of the great falcon god Horus. His right eye was the sun or morning star and his left eye was the moon or evening star.
Now thinking about sterling silver jewellery:
Trace amounts of silver have actually been found on the Moon, discovered by a NASA probe in 2009.
White moonstone is quite special. It looks like a hazy moon, sometimes transparent and sometimes as if moonlight was trapped inside. When the sunlight hits it, it almost glows.
