Overview

Chandra Graha Shanti for families in Rathyatra

Chandra is associated in Jyotish with the mind, emotions, intuition, nourishment and one's relationship with mother. Because the Moon moves quickly and governs the mind, Chandra worship is traditionally seen as a way to seek calm, contentment and emotional balance.

Rathyatra is one of the best-known crossings in central Varanasi, linking Sigra, Mahmoorganj and the roads towards the south of the city. Its name comes from the traditional Rath Yatra fair of Lord Jagannath held in the area each year.

ब्रह्मा मुरारिस्त्रिपुरान्तकारी भानुः शशी भूमिसुतो बुधश्च।

गुरुश्च शुक्रः शनिराहुकेतवः सर्वे ग्रहाः शान्तिकरा भवन्तु॥

Planning Your Puja in Rathyatra

The crossing is congested for much of the day; early-morning slots are easiest.
During the Rath Yatra fair, expect road diversions and heavy crowds nearby.
Commercial buildings may restrict open flames, so check before a havan.
Parking can be limited near the crossing; arrange a drop-off point for the Pandit.
Share birth details and the reason for the shanti.
Keep milk, white flowers, rice and a silver or steel vessel ready.
