Moonstone (Chandrakant Mani) is the gem of the moon — soft, sacred, and reflective. It is often worn as an upratan (substitute) for Pearl (Moti), ruled by Chandra (the Moon) — the planet of emotions, memory, femininity, and the subconscious.
When life feels overwhelming, or your mind wavers under emotional weight, Moonstone offers calm without heaviness, support without control.
चंद्रमा के समान शांत, कोमल और प्रकाशमान, चंद्रकांत मणि को मोती का उपरत्न माना जाता है। यह विशेष रूप से उन लोगों के लिए पहना जाता है जो चंद्र ग्रह की असंतुलित ऊर्जा, भावनात्मक अस्थिरता, या चिंता से गुजर रहे हों।
यह रत्न मन, भावना और स्त्री ऊर्जा में संतुलन लाने का एक सुंदर माध्यम है।
Moonstone is ideal for:
– People undergoing Chandra Dasha / Antardasha
– Those feeling emotionally fragile, overwhelmed, or anxious
– Women navigating hormonal shifts or emotional sensitivity
– Spiritual seekers, artists, caregivers, and empaths
– Anyone needing gentle grounding, intuitive clarity, and inner peace
