Remedies of planet Moon according to Vedic Astrology

For removing effects of malefic Moon, Mantra and Stotra related to Moon are chanted. This can be started on any Monday in bright half ( shukla paksha ). Total number of Japa of Moon is 11000 but in Kaliyuga, this figure must be multiplied four folds and hence 44000 Japa of Moon Mantra should be chanted. After this a Homa ( Fire ritual ) should be performed in which the Moon Mantras should be recited for 4400 times ( 1/10th of the total number of Mantras ).

For removing malefic effects of planet Moon, one should keep fast on Monday. As per rule, this fast begins from 1st Monday of bright half and should continue for 16 Mondays. One is allowed to have milk and fruits during the fast. One should prefer to eat white colored items more. One should go to Shiva Temple in the evening and meditate & worship Lord Shiva.

The Gem for the planet Moon is Pearl which is worn to remove the malefic effects of Moon. Pearl must be purchased in the bright half on Monday or Thursday. Purchasing and making it in a ring should be done in Pushya Nakshatra. If Pushya Nakshatra is not possible then this can be done in Rohini, Hasta or Shravana Nakshatra also. Ruby must weigh atleast 3 carats. Badly cut, broken or uneven Pearl will not serve the purpose. It should be embedded in the ring in such a way that its bottom is touching the body. This ring must be put on at Sunrise on Monday. If a person is not capable to purchase Pearl then Moon Stone or White Stone may be used in place of Pearl.

For removing malefic effects of Moon, at the time of Moonrise, give offering to a Brahmin is also beneficial. The items of offering include Rice, Ghee, White conch, Sugar, White flowers, White cloth, Silver, Curd, Pearl, Camphor or Moon Yantra. This offering should be given on Monday.
