Oh no, we've frequently discussed the numerous references to moon goddesses and moon promises that appear in the series. If you're a lunatic, then so are we! Yes, I actually think that's funny.
As far as solid cannon goes, the moon doesn't seem to have a concrete religious meaning or motif function in any of the cultures. The moon often represents unfaithfulness, because of how it changes its face. In ancient Greek culture, the moon also held associates with wildness and unpredictability. It was after all the symbol of the unconventional huntress, Artemis - patron goddess of the hunt and unmarried women.
If Megan's frequent references to the moon mean anything, it's probably just as you said, a reference to Gen, his wild ways, and his moon promises. And Shakespeare = awesome. That is a great line from R&J. It's reminded me often of QT.
