Strengthen Chandra for Emotional Balance
Understanding the Moon in Vedic Astrology
The Moon (Chandra) governs your emotions, mind, intuition, and inner peace. A strong Moon brings emotional stability, mental clarity, and intuitive abilities. When the Moon is weak or afflicted in your birth chart, you may experience mood swings, anxiety, emotional instability, and difficulty making decisions.
These Vedic remedies are designed to strengthen your Moon sign, bringing balance to your emotional life and enhancing your mental well-being.
