Sélénose

Sélénose is a term sometimes used to describe a hypothetical neurological condition characterized by an inability to perceive or process information related to the moon. While not a recognized medical diagnosis in established psychiatric or neurological literature, the concept of sélénose has appeared in speculative fiction and philosophical discussions. Proponents of the idea suggest that individuals experiencing sélénose might be unable to recognize lunar phases, comprehend lunar cycles, or even see the moon as a distinct celestial body. The proposed causes for such a condition are purely theoretical, ranging from specific brain damage to rare genetic predispositions. There are no documented cases or scientific studies supporting the existence of sélénose as a clinical disorder. Therefore, it remains an idea confined to imaginative exploration rather than a subject of medical research or clinical practice. Its primary relevance lies in its potential to explore human perception and the subjective experience of reality.
