Why the Moon Fades Every Month 😱 | Chandra’s Curse, Shiva & Vedic Karma Explained

Why does the Moon disappear every month? 🌑 Is it just a phase... or a curse?

In ancient Hindu mythology, the story goes far deeper than astronomy.

The Moon God Chandra was once radiant and adored by all — especially by his 27 celestial wives, the daughters of Sage Daksha. But Chandra showed love to only one… Rohini.

Enraged by his favoritism, Daksha cursed Chandra:

“You shall fade day by day… until you vanish.”

And so began the lunar cycle — the waning and waxing of the moon — rooted not in science, but in cosmic karma.

As the Moon weakened, the gods pleaded with Lord Shiva. In compassion, Shiva intervened — and placed the fading crescent on his own head, giving Chandra partial light and eternal significance.

This is why Shiva wears the moon — not as decoration, but as a symbol of grace, balance, and redemption.

Today, the moon phase cycle reflects not just time… but ego, action, and forgiveness in Sanatan Dharma.

✨ Discover the forgotten meaning behind Chandra’s curse, Shiva’s compassion, and the mystical power of the moon in Vedic mythology.
