Chandra influences our spiritual and physical world. The moon's cycles are connected to tides, seasons, and crop growth and to the shaping of our inner world. Its phases symbolise shifts in consciousness, periods for growth, reflection, and renewal. The cyclical changes represented by Chandra’s influence tap into the psyche’s innate drives, stimulating maturation as individuals align their inner emotional states with nature’s rhythms. By experiencing these recurrent patterns, we may channel our energy in constructive ways, allowing unconscious impulses to surface, find expression, and ultimately lead to a more integrated self. Such alignment promotes a sense of inner balance and aids in the resolution of internal conflicts, gradually tempering the ego’s tension between instinctual demands and societal expectations.
"May the moon give refreshment to our hearts; may he be propitious and kind to us." - (Atharvaveda 19.7)
