Moon Signs and their Personality Traits

The moon exerts a mysterious influence over the natural world. All sorts of animals rely on the moon for various behaviors, from navigation to feeding to spawning. When their behavior is not simply attributable to the extra light of a full moon, how and why these creatures exhibit different behaviors during different lunar phases remains somewhat of a mystery. If animal behaviors can be driven by the moon, it's not altogether unbelievable that the moon might have some effects on humans as well.
