The moon is considered the king of herbs and medicines and is a very powerful healer. This is why in India the medicinal herbs were always planted and harvested at appropriate phases of the moon. The moon is also considered the master of our mind and emotions and deep spiritual feelings.

There are many mantras to honor these auspicious qualities of the moon. This is another very special mantra that honors the moon along with some of the powerful Bīja-mantra-s (seed syllables) associate with it.

Listen to this mantra 6 times each day, at sunrise, midday and sunset time.

oṁ śrāṁ śrīṁ śrauṁ saḥ candrāya namaḥ
