An astrologer reveals she schedules haircuts based on the moon's phase to control growth.
1. Danielle Dithurbide en Fórmula on Friday April 10, 2026 devotes the program to the moon as a cultural, musical, spiritual, and scientific phenomenon. 2. Hosts Danielle Dithurbide and Jimena Millán are joined by astrologer Frida Arbayo, music analyst Benjamín Salcedo, and hypnotist John Milton. 3. The episode's core question is why the moon has inspired more art, music, and spiritual practice than any other celestial body — and whether its influence on human emotion and behavior is real. 4. Frida Arbayo, an astrologer with three moon tattoos on her arms, explains that in astrology the moon governs the internal emotional world, which is why people feel heightened emotions during a full moon. 5. She describes aligning daily decisions with lunar phases: cutting hair in the waning phase for slower growth, beginning new projects at the new moon, and releasing relationships or habits at the full moon. 6. She states that she predicted the eclipse period of September 2025 would be emotionally disruptive since January of that year and withdrew at home during the eclipse. 7. Benjamín Salcedo traces moon-themed music from Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata in the nineteenth century through jazz standards by Benny Goodman and big bands of the 1930s to 1950s. 8. He describes the 1960s as a turning point when the moon's music became psychedelic: the Doors, Pink Floyd, the Rolling Stones, and Creedence Clearwater Revival all wrote moon-themed songs with darker, more cosmic tones. 9. Salcedo reveals that NASA prepared Apollo astronauts with Walkmans loaded with moon-themed playlists, and that the crew arranged for Frank Sinatra's 'Fly Me to the Moon' to be playing via a recorder at the moment of touchdown. 10. He describes Pink Floyd's 1973 Dark Side of the Moon as tracking duality, madness, and personality conflict, and states that a pressing was included on the disc sent into space for potential extraterrestrial discovery. 11. Salcedo continues the timeline through David Bowie's 1969 Space Oddity — described as evoking desolation and loneliness — and 1972's Moonage Daydream, through The Police's Walking on the Moon, which he says blended reggae and rock. 12. He concludes the timeline with Bruno Mars' 'Talking to the Moon' as a modern symbol of absence and loneliness, Ariana Grande's 'Moonlight' as a tender love metaphor, and Coldplay's 2024 Moon Music — pressed onto recycled materials to minimize ecological impact. 13. Host Dithurbide notes that every mass-market calendar sold in Mexico, regardless of origin, includes lunar phase information alongside saint's days, suggesting widespread ambient attention to lunar cycles. 14. Hypnotist John Milton says that mystical traditions identify the moon as Chandra, god of mind and emotions, and states he believes new moon nights are when decisions most consequential to the future are made. 15. A Coachella segment reports that the 2026 festival begins April 10 in the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California, headlined by Sabrina Carpenter, Justin Bieber, and Karol G — described as the first Latina to headline the event. 16. The hosts explain Coachella's two-weekend format, introduced after 2012 when single-weekend tickets sold out too quickly, with identical lineups across both weekends. 17. Dithurbide notes that general admission weekend passes start at around 700 dollars, rising to approximately 1,348 dollars for a two-weekend package, and argues that the festival's apparent glamour is often manufactured by brand-sponsored influencer accommodations. 18. The episode includes a trivia segment noting that April 10 is also the date the Titanic left Southampton in 1912, and that a 1898 novel called Futility described a ship named Titan — nearly identical in construction to the Titanic — sinking after hitting an iceberg in April. 19. The tone is conversational and light, alternating between music playback segments, spiritual and factual discussion, and news updates; the overall energy is warm and celebratory of Friday. 20. Listeners who enjoy entertainment news, music history, astrology, and casual trivia will find the episode engaging; those seeking hard news or in-depth analysis of any single topic will find the breadth too wide.
