Chandra Grahan 2023: Lunar Eclipse and its impact on pregnancy

Eclipses are noteworthy astronomical occurrences that are seldom seen. A lunar eclipse, also known as a Chandra Grahan, is a celestial event in which the Earth blocks the Moon's light from reaching the Sun. This results in a straight line containing the Earth between the Sun and the other two celestial bodies.

The forthcoming Lunar Eclipse is not only highly significant in the fields of astrology and astronomy, but it is also believed to have an impact on people's health, particularly that of expectant mothers. Eclipses are rare and significant astronomical events. Chandra Grahans, or lunar eclipses, occur when the Earth blocks the Moon's light from reaching the Sun. This happens when the Earth is positioned in the centre of a straight line that is formed by the Sun, the Earth, and the Moon. When the Earth blocks part of the Sun's direct light from reaching the full Moon's surface and entirely or partially blocks the light.
