Welcome to The Oddity Shop, Where the Bizarre is Always on Sale!  This week in the shop, Zach is telling us about the Phases of the Moon and sharing some Full Moon Tales. That's right we're unwrapping the celestial enigmas of the moon—with its cultural and metaphysical significance—and share tales that flirt with the supernatural. From the formation of this celestial body to its role in human history and life today, we traverse the tales and truths that have orbited the moon for millennia.  Hold on to your headphones as we recount spine-tingling experiences with an ominous, blood-red moon that paints a night of inexplicable events, tales of the full moon in the hospital, and so much more. We're not just about the eerie, though; we'll also let you in on practical magic, like creating moon water during the full moon for cleansing crystals or nurturing plants. Plus, we'll discuss how the moon phases can inspire personal rituals and reflections—think of it as a celestial guide for your spiritual journey.  Finally, we are calling on you, our dear listeners, to share your spooky stories and thoughts with us.. Be sure to join us with an open mind and perhaps a nightlight, as we navigate through chilling encounters and lunar lore, all the while keeping our eyes peeled for the peculiar.
