Moonlight is the reflection of the sun off the moon's surface — a clear sky and a full moon provide brilliant moonlight.
The Moon does not make its own light —”moonlight” is actually reflected sunlight. At any moment, half of the Moon is brightly sunlit (this is the day side). The other half is in the dark (this is the night side).
Moonlight exposure is thought to also relieve anxiety and stress and improve relaxation by prompting the natural release of melatonin. The moon gently energizes, in contrast with the sun's sharp brightness.
“Exposure to moonlight is an effective way to soothe and cool excess heat, anger and imbalances from the body's system (calming the pitta dosha) and has been used to help diseases such as hypertension, migraines, hives, rashes, urticaria and other inflammatory conditions.”
Do take time from daily routines to spend sometime in the moonlight.
