The cycles of the moon play themselves out in our body, instantly correlating with planetary movements. The gravitational effects of the sun and moon on the earth cause ocean tides, which also affect our bodies. Eighty percent of our body has the same chemical composition as the ocean we once called home, and is still affected by its tidal pull.<br \/>\nThere are rhythms within rhythms within rhythms.
