The Moon (Chandra) governs your mind, emotions, intuition, mother, domestic happiness, and subconscious patterns. An afflicted or weak Moon is the root cause of anxiety, depression, insomnia, unstable relationships, and troubled relationship with the mother. These 6 Chandra remedies will calm and strengthen your lunar energy.
1. Wear a Natural Pearl (Moti)
Natural Pearl is the most direct Moon remedy available. Wear a certified natural Pearl (not cultured) of minimum 5 Ratti in silver on the Little Finger (Kanishtha) of the right hand. Energize on a Monday during Shukla Paksha by chanting “Om Som Somaya Namah” 108 times. Results: reduced anxiety, improved sleep, emotional balance within 21 days.
2. Monday Fasting and Shiva Puja
Observe a Monday fast (nirjala — without water — for strict observance; or eating only one white-food meal like milk, rice kheer, or sabudana). Visit the nearest Shivalinga and offer raw milk mixed with Gangajal, white flowers (white oleander, champa, or jasmine), and belpatra leaves. Chant “Om Namah Shivaya” 108 times. The Shivalinga represents both Lord Shiva and the Moon — Monday is the strongest day for both.
3. Drink Milk from a Silver Glass
Silver is the metal of the Moon. Drinking milk from a pure silver glass on Mondays, or ideally daily, strengthens the Moon’s energy in the body. As an alternative, store water in a silver vessel overnight and drink it the next morning on an empty stomach.
4. Feed and Serve Your Mother
The Moon represents the mother principle. Serving your mother with love, touching her feet daily, and ensuring her comfort and happiness directly strengthens the Moon in your chart. If your mother is not accessible, serve other maternal figures — elderly women, nurses, or Mother Earth through environmental acts.
5. Moonlight Meditation on Purnima
On every Purnima (full moon night), sit under direct moonlight for 15-20 minutes in quiet meditation. Visualize the cool, silver-white light of the Moon entering your body through the crown of your head, filling your mind with peace and your heart with compassion. Chant “Om Chandraya Namah” during this practice. This monthly ritual resets your lunar energy like a battery recharge.
6. Keep a Silver Moon Yantra at Home
Place a Chandra Yantra (Moon Yantra) engraved on silver in the Northwest zone of your home or bedroom — the Northwest is the direction of the Moon in Vastu. Energize with milk and white flowers on a Monday. This creates a constant ambient Moon strengthening in your living environment.
