Chandrashtama is an important phase in Vedic astrology that occurs when the Moon transits through the 8th house from an individual’s birth Rasi (Moon sign). For Viruchigam Rasi (Scorpio Moon sign), Chandrashtama happens when the Moon moves into Mithunam Rasi (Gemini). During these days, people may face emotional stress, financial instability, confusion, or obstacles in work and relationships. Astrologers recommend avoiding major financial transactions, starting new ventures, and making important commitments during this phase. However, engaging in spiritual practices, meditation, and prayers to Lord Shiva or Goddess Durga can help minimize the negative effects.
In 2026, multiple Chandrashtama days occur for Viruchigam Rasi, making it essential to refer to the Tamil Panchangam before planning significant activities. Many believers prefer to postpone travel, business deals, job interviews, and auspicious ceremonies during this period to avoid challenges. While Chandrashtama is seen as an unfavorable time, it is temporary and encourages self-reflection and patience. By being aware of Viruchigam Rasi Chandrashtama days in 2026, individuals can make informed choices, reduce risks, and navigate life smoothly with the help of astrological remedies and proper planning.
