Facing North

Recently noted that I find myself facing north during the dance or teapot bend.  Anyone else?  I mean, there are things I do that seem like someone is directing me (puppet like) cause I don't know why I am dancing or walking a certain way.  And I am always looking for a spot that doesn't give the imminent death feeling, and more often than not, that is facing north (though it doesn't seem to help *too much* anyway).  Could this be related to the whole cicadian rhythm thing, or how come many attacks come around soltices / equinoxes?  Is it the spinning, rolling of the Earth?  Anyone have anything similar?

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

Nearly every one of my clusters has started about a month before the equinox, more often the spring equinox.

I find the most comfort in this rythm.

Spring and Fall cycles are quite common. Personally, I'm not sure it isn't more about the weather, than the equinox.

It is like your appendix, an evolutionary left-over .... the signal to begin migrating. But like a typical clusterhead, you get it all wrong. Now is the time to Head South (unless you are down under).  Wink
 
Seriously, though, changes in daylight and heat can start a cycle in an episodic. It is a disease with a circadian component for many episodics.  Not sure about the north thing, though.

Hi stevema
 
Perhaps you face north simply because that means you are not looking toward the sun. I know I don't like looking at bright light during a cluster.

I always pace north and south. Not because of the position of the magnetic fields, the stars, moon or sun but because my patio is longer that direction then east to west to east.
