The Lunar Fertility Guide

I have only recently been made aware of the lunar fertility guide, and find the whole idea extremely interesting. If lunar fertility really does work this could be brilliant for women who are desperate to conceive but are having no luck, even though they are doing everything 'right'.

The natal lunar phase was researched by a Doctor called Eugen Jonas back in the 1950's. Although no scientific evidence exists, Dr Jonas documented that a women can actually have two times in one month where she can conceive. These two separate fertility cycles are the natural menstrual cycle when a woman will ovulate around 14 days before her period is due, and the lunar fertility cycle.

In the lunar fertility cycle, the woman has a lunar conception moment. This moment can occur when the moon is in the same position as when the women herself was born. This lunar fertile time runs totally separate to the normal ovulation period, although it may occur at the same time.

Understanding the lunar fertility guide

To understand this new way of thinking about fertility, you should probably try and understand the moons cycle. A full cycle of the moon, from a new moon, through waxing, to full, then waning and back to a new moon takes around 28 days (some will say 29)

A womans average menstrual cycle is around 28 days, although they can range from 25 to 35 days. This fluctuation between the 28 day moon cycle and the amount of days in your cycle is what makes it possible for you to be fertile twice in one month. We've all heard of someone who got pregnant on their period... Well maybe this is why!

Your natal lunar phase

You will need to get a chart to find out what position the moon was at, in the sky on not only the date, but also the time that you were born. So for example if you were born under a waning moon, then you will be fertile under a waning moon. If you were born under a full moon, you will be most fertile when there is a full moon.

When the moon returns to this same position it will trigger ovulation in your body. This trigger is intensified if you also have intercourse around this time.

Your lunar fertility guide should tell you the position of the moon when your were born, and which coming days will be your lunar conception dates.

I would advise purchasing one of these to make sure that it is done correctly. It's all very good wanting to try a new method, but it will only work if you have the correct information.
