Remedy Moon with Rahu (North Node) in Astrology




In astrology Moon is mind, feelings, emotional response, and peace of mind. Moon is a very gentle planet, sensitive and caring planet. It is selfless love of a mother.


Rahu (North Node) is the energy in our subconscious mind where we want to grow towards in life. Rahu is the karmic points in the horoscopes indicating the main areas of life where a person needs to grow, so that they can move forward in life. When Rahu joins any planet in the chart it becomes very important in one's life. Generally where Rahu (North Node) is placed in the chart, it shows where we need to do work to overcome our mind immaturity. Rahu is chaos in life, amplifier of the things, obsession of what we desire, illusion and all possibility in life. Rahu also brings stress and fear in life.


When the Moon and Rahu are in conjunction or together in the birth chart then Rahu amplifies the quality of the Moon. Rahu amplifies the emotional nature of the Moon. Moon is the feminine, caring, affectionate and nourishing planet. Rahu amplifies all these qualities of the Moon. If this conjunction is in the woman chart then the woman is very feminine nature, caring, affectionate and nourishing in nature. On the other hand these people are very immature about their emotions. They don’t know how to control their emotions and their emotional reactions are very extreme. These people exaggerate any emotions and sometimes they are not emotionally stable. These people are very sensitive and are not focused. These people externalize more about their feelings and they are overly emotional and overly reactive. Rahu is extroverted, so it is open to the person outside worldly emotional drama. These people are easily excited for anything. Since Moon is mother in astrology the native’s relationship with mother can be hypnotic, and overly emotional. Mother could be overprotective, possessive towards you. 


Rahu works on the psychic level. Therefore these people have some psychic influence on their mind. They might attract some negative energies and may experience some negative activities during their Rahu mahadasha depending on the placement of Rahu and Moon in certain houses. Generally negative energy affects those people who develop some kind of addictions like alcoholism or drugs. Therefore those people who have this conjunction need to be more careful not to use all these substances. If a mother knows that her child has this type of conjunction she needs to be more careful and try to keep her child in a good environment. She should teach children that they should not be overwhelmed by any unpleasant emotions and try to live in balance and focused in their mind.


Depending on which signs this conjunction occurs, results can vary. If the Moon is weak and in conjunction with Rahu it can give more problems to the person. It can amplify fear, anxiety, and can give depression. Rahu is the past life desire within us which is unfulfilled, and when the Rahu conjunction with Moon, then there is a desire for emotional needs to get fulfilled. The native thought process can be different from other people because Rahu is a different and inventor of something. These people think in a unique way.


Till their mid forties these people learn many lessons about emotions. As the person matures they learn to control their emotions.


Remedy of Moon with Rahu:


1. Moon also represents the enjoyment of the present movement. Moon is the observer and those people who have this combination are not able to enjoy the present movement. They have a hard time focusing on something. They are always wondering about the past or future. Therefore these people can have a restless mind. Therefore these people need to learn meditation. So that they can stabilize their thoughts and learn to be happy in the present movement.


2. These people learn to enjoy nature and try to connect with nature. Try to purify the body by grounding, water therapy and enjoying their times whatever they like.


3. Developing good habits of eating and reducing negative thoughts also help them on Rahu’s negative effect. Since Rahu is placed with Moon and Moon is mother in astrology the person needs to respect their mother and try to talk respectfully, and generally native should talk politely with everyone.


4. Keeping good relations with in-laws also improves the eccentric nature of Rahu.


5. Wearing cold metals like silver is to keep your mind cool. The native needs to wear a silver chain or any silver ornament.


6. Maa durga is the deity of Rahu. Goddess Durga protects us and destroys our fear, anger and darkness of mind. By worshiping Maa Durga you can overcome any fear, anxiety and dark energy in life. Once darkness and fear is destroyed we automatically attain peace in our heart.


8. Pouring milk on shivling on Saturday calm down the restless mind of the native.

Debilitated / Exalted and Retrograde Planet in Astrology




 When  there is a  debilitated and retrograde planet it gives you ability to reverse debilitation.

Many times people ask questions about the planet debilitated at the same time it is retrograded.


When  there is a  debilitated and retrograde planet it gives you the ability to reverse the debilitation.


Generally in vedic astrology it is called Neecha Bhanga yoga (cancellation of debilitation) but nothing is cancelled, everything is added. So whenever a planet is debilitated and retrograde at the same time, it just simply means the person is not taking any action and stepping back therefore the planet's debilitation is reduced in some way.


To understand this let’s take an example of Mercury retrograde and it is debilitated at the same time. Mercury is debilitated in Pisces. Mercury is a planet of intelligence and communication. When Mercury is debilitated the person has confused communication, has a habit of exaggeration of words, not focusing on details, not able to live in reality  and has a dreamy nature. Debilitated Mercury means, someone's misspeaking, not paying attention to details. 


But when Mercury turns retrograde it actually has the effect of reversing the problem of Mercury debilitating. So when the planet is debilitated and retrograde, what happens is it  reverses the quality of the debilitated planet. First it tends to make us hesitant, we are less confident, and it backs up our consciousness where we act impulsively. The person thinks before speaking or communicating with others. So when Mercury debilitates we are likely to do confusing communication but when it is retrograde, first we think and then speak and it will tend to bring a reversal of the communication and they found a solution very quickly. Pisces Mercury have a tendency to confuse detail but when it retrograde it reflects on confusion related with communication and they try to correct the confusion.  But the person still has a problem of debilitated Mercury. They still have a tendency to misspeak but when it goes retrograde the planet reverses some of the difficulty of the debilitated planet.


When Mars debilitated in the sign of Cancer. Mars is the planet of strength, courage and fighting ability. When it comes in the sign of Cancer it loses it fighting ability, because Cancer is a very soft and sensitive sign. But when Mars is debilitated and retrograde at the same time the person tries to strengthen their weakness and tries to face life problems with courage. 


Some people have Venus debilitated. Venus debilitated in the sign of Virgo. Venus is the planet of love, happiness and relationship. When it comes to the sign of Virgo it becomes very critical and analytical in relationships. We all want a love which is pure and without any criticism, because no one likes criticism in love. Therefore when Venus is debilitated there are a lot of chances in breaking off the relationship. But when Venus is debilitated at the same time it is retrograde what happens the person reflects on those things which indicate debilitated Venus. The person thinks before doing any criticism, will try not to do much analysis in the relationship therefore the relationship may work out. A debilitated planet with retrograde try to reduce the impact of debilitation.


Jupiter is debilitated in the sign of Capricorn. Jupiter is the planet of hope and wisdom and it comes in the sign of Capricorn it loses it quality the person may be materialistic and hopeless in bad times, but when it debilitates at same time retrograde the person does not lose its hope in bad times and try to strengthen the personal faith.


Saturn is debilitated in the sign of Aries. Saturn is the planet of responsibility, hard work and long term goals. When Saturn debilitated the person suffers in long term goals and is not able to sit in one place. But when it gets retrograde, they think about their long term goal and to try to minimize the effect of debilitation of Saturn.


So whenever a planet is debilitated and retrograde at the same time, it means the person has the capacity to reverse the debilitating effect of the planet and the person may feel less effects of debilitation of the planet. 


The same theory applies to exalted retrograde planets. If any planet is exalted and retrograde at the same time. It loses its exaltation effect and it loses its power in some way.
