Luna (Luna.)

Luna (Luna.) appears in 64 rubrics in the Repertory. Of these, three are single-remedy rubrics in which only this remedy is listed, and one is a small rubric with at most two other remedies.

Moon and full moon

Three single-remedy rubrics refer to the moon. Barking and barking noises occur in dogs when there is a full moon. Moon and Moonlight are each recorded with aggravation at full moon, with the modifier "full moon agg." Moonlight appears, in addition, with three rubrics.

Anger and irritability

Anger is most frequent with six rubrics, Irritability and Irritation with five. Sadness, Delusions and Hatred are recorded several times. The small rubric links changeable mood with menstruation.

Summary

The picture is shaped by the relation to the moon, which shows itself most clearly in the single-remedy rubrics. Anger and irritability form the most frequent main rubrics. The combination of lunar relation and state of mind is the distinctive feature of the remedy.

All rubrics of this remedy, the materia medica and the case work are in Rathmer’s Repertory.
