Chandra Graha Shanti Puja (Moon Planet)

About Puja

Chandra Graha Shanti Puja is performed to balance the influence of the Moon in the horoscope. The Moon represents mind, emotions, mental stability, intuition, and inner peace. In Vedic astrology, the Moon plays a vital role in shaping a person’s thoughts, feelings, and emotional well-being. When the Moon is weak or afflicted, it can cause mental stress, anxiety, depression, mood swings, insomnia, lack of focus, and instability in personal life.

This puja helps calm the mind, stabilize emotions, and bring clarity and peace to life.
