In Vedic astrology, the Moon (Chandra) governs your mind, emotions, intuition, sleep, and inner peace. A strong Moon brings mental stability, nurturing ability, peace of mind, and a balanced emotional life. But when the Moon is weak, afflicted by malefics like Rahu, Saturn, or Mars, or placed in a difficult house, it can result in mood swings, anxiety, depression, insecurity, or lack of clarity.
Signs That Your Moon Needs Healing:
- Sudden mood swings or anxiety
- Insomnia or disturbed sleep
- Overthinking or emotional hypersensitivity
- Weak memory or lack of focus
- Insecurity in relationships
If you resonate with these, it’s time to work on your Chandra (Moon).
If you’re feeling emotionally unstable, indecisive, or overly sensitive, your Moon might need some astrological remedies.
In this article, you’ll learn 5 powerful remedies to strengthen the Moon and bring calm, confidence, and clarity back into your life.
1. Chant the Moon Beej Mantra Daily
One of the most effective ways to strengthen the Moon is through mantra chanting. The Beej Mantra for Moon is:
“Om Shraam Shreem Shraum Sah Chandraya Namah”
- Chant this 108 times daily, especially on Mondays or during the Moon Hora.
- It helps calm the mind, reduce emotional turbulence, and invoke the healing energies of Chandra Deva.
2. Donate White Items on Mondays
According to classical Vedic texts, the Moon is associated with the color white, milk, rice, silver, and camphor.
On Mondays, donate items like:
- Milk
- White rice
- Curd
- White clothes
- Sugar
This creates positive karmic effects and helps reduce the malefic impact on the Moon.
3. Observe a Fast on Mondays (Somvar Vrat)
Fasting on Mondays—known as “Somvar Vrat”—is a traditional and highly beneficial remedy to please the Moon.
- You can take a liquid or fruit-based fast, and break it after sunset with sattvic food.
- Reciting Chandra Kavacham or reading Shiva Chalisa also enhances the remedy’s effect.
Benefits include better emotional control, clarity in decisions, and improved sleep cycles.
4. Wear a Pearl (Moti) with Proper Guidance
Pearl (Moti) is the precious gemstone associated with the Moon. When recommended by a learned astrologer, wearing a real, high-quality South Sea or Basra Pearl in silver can amplify Moon’s positive energy.
Basic Guidelines:
- Wear on the right hand little finger on a Monday morning during Shukla Paksha.
- Chant the Beej mantra while wearing it.
Caution: Gemstones should only be worn after chart analysis. If your Moon is malefic or sits with enemies, wearing Pearl might not be suitable.
5. Strengthen Your Connection with the Moon Element (Water)
Moon is the ruler of water and emotions. So, regular contact with water and moonlight can naturally improve your lunar energies.
- Take a bath in rock salt water (Epsom salt) to cleanse negativity.
- Spend time near lakes, rivers, or the sea.
- Sit under moonlight on full moon nights and meditate or pray.
These simple spiritual practices help you sync with the natural rhythm of the Moon and improve your emotional resilience.
