Moon: Significance and remedies of the planet according to Vedic astrology

Importance of Moon in life

Moon is one of the major planets in Hindu mythology. Many people worship the Moon and seek its blessings. The Moon controls many aspects of creation, life, mind, mood and emotions. The Moon is associated with mood swings, solitude, intense emotions, romance and pleasant nights.

Astrologically, the Moon has a great influence on the emotions and mental abilities of individuals. When the Moon is waxing, it is considered to have a positive effect and when it is waning, the effect is unpleasant. The size and position of the Moon decide whether it is beneficial or harmful.
