There is no doubt that days with a lot of wind were once dangerous ones, destroying shelters, dispersing warning scents, and masking the sound of an approaching predator. A fisherman on the Dalmatian coast of Yugoslavia described hukovi, the shrill scream that warns of an approaching bora, as “a desperate sound that causes a man’s heart to tremble.” Almost as though the sight of swiftly-driven cloud or the sound of air rushing through the trees were stimuli that triggered some deep-seated response. But there is something about an approaching gale that makes men very restless. Most women, very sensibly, seek shelter from the wind. There are individual differences of course, some of which are apparently sex-linked. There is something about wind, quite apart from its cooling influence, that directly affects our well-being.Īs a species, we seem to have a high awareness and a surprisingly low tolerance of wind. Observation of the behavior of children in the playground of an American school, revealed that the average number of fights per day doubled when wind speeds crossed the biological threshold above force 6. One study of performance in physical fitness tests at a variety of temperatures, found an efficiency peak with wind blowing at 25 kilometers per hour (force 4), with energy falling off at both lower and higher wind speeds. There is something about wind, quite apart from its cooling influence, that directly affects our well-being. Roughly 30 percent of all people everywhere are sensitive in some way to their touch. Goethe thought it “a pity that just the excellent personalities suffer most.” But the winds are nothing is not democratic. But there is general agreement amongst Byron, Columbus, Dante, Darwin, Humboldt, Luther, Michelangelo, Milton, Mozart, Napoleon, Nietzsche, Rousseau, Schiller and Wagner that wind does make a difference, turning both body and mind. While the north wind was described by Spenser as “bitter, black and blustering,” by Shakespeare as “wrathful and tyrannous,” and held responsible for “gout, the falling evil, itch and the ague.” Hippocrates was convinced that west winds were worse, and that people exposed to them became pale and sickly with digestive organs that were “frequently deranged from the phlegm that runs down into them from the head.” Theophrastus noted that it was in southerly winds that “men find themselves more weary and incapable” due to thinning of the lubricant in their joints. It was literally in an east wind that Charles I was beheaded and James II deposed. Everyone wears a grim expression and is inclined to make desperate decisions. Men who are strong enough to preserve their health in this accursed wind at least lose their good humor. Even the animals suffer from it and have a dejected air. Jesus this is so heavy.This east wind, is responsible for numerous cases of suicide.Black melancholy spreads over the whole nation.
