Chandra Grahan 2025: What each ascendant needs to know about the Aquarius Lunar Eclipse

2 hours ago 3

ARTICLE AD BOX

On the night of 7 September 2025, the Moon will undergo a total lunar eclipse (a “blood moon”) while transiting Aquarius. The eclipse geometry places the Moon in close conjunction with Rahu (the north lunar node) in traditional Vedic reading. Astronomically, this is a long total eclipse visible across much of Asia, Australia, Europe, and Africa. In Vedic astrology, an eclipse involving the Moon and Rahu is traditionally seen as a time when emotions, intuition, and household/mental matters become clouded, when old impressions resurface, and when delays or sudden revelations can occur—especially in the areas governed by the Moon in your chart. These general qualities are described in contemporary Jyotish sources and Panchang traditions.

Essential Guidance Before the Predictions

Eclipse Observances and Precautions

Sutak / Precautions: Traditional Hindu practice marks an eclipse-period (sutak) during which certain activities (eating, starting new ventures, visiting temples in some traditions) are avoided, and extra care is taken for purity and prayer. Post-eclipse cleansing (bath/prayers) and acts of charity are commonly recommended.
Nature of Influence: Rahu plus Moon themes include emotional confusion, illusions, sudden news, delays in family/home matters, or karmic issues connected to past impressions. This is a time best used for reflection rather than action.

General, Widely Recommended Practices for the Eclipse

Avoid decisive, irreversible actions during the exact eclipse window (contracts, major purchases). Use the time for reflection, planning, and inner work.
Many traditions advise refraining from eating during the exact sutak/eclipse period, and bathing and offering prayers once it ends. Charity and feeding the needy after the eclipse is considered highly beneficial.
Chanting familiar mantras (e.g., Om Namah Shivaya, Mahamrityunjaya, or simple bhajans), practicing breathing exercises, and sitting in silence can help reduce anxiety and bring inner clarity.

Final Thoughts

This lunar eclipse is both an astronomical spectacle and a moment of intensified inner awareness. The Moon–Rahu tone invites us to notice old impressions and to distinguish illusion from truth—not by forcing outcomes, but by reflecting, giving charity, and protecting what is tender in our lives.

Use the time to observe, protect your well-being, and resume outward actions once the sutak finishes. For precise, personalised guidance—especially regarding relationships, property, litigation, or major life decisions—consult a qualified Jyotishi with your natal chart (lagna, Moon, planetary placements).
