What Precaution Pregnant Women Should Take During Chandra Grahan or Lunar Eclipse?

Hindu Blog receives numerous queries regarding what precaution pregnant women should take during Chandra Grahan or Lunar Eclipse? This is because many devout Hindus have numerous fears regarding Chandra Grahan or Lunar Eclipse. There is a belief that pregnant women will be affected by Chandra Grahan but this has not been scientifically proved. The safe option adopted by most Hindus is to remain indoors during the period of Grahan. Pregnant women chant the Santana Gopala Mantra during Grahan.

The Santana Gopala Mantra is dedicated to Lord Krishna and is chanted for an easy and safe pregnancy and to get a healthy baby.
The Santana Gopala Mantra is
Om Devaki Sudha Govinda
Vasudeva Jagath Pathe
Dehimey Thanayam
Krishna Thwamaham
Saranam Kadhahaa
Deva Deva Jagannatha
Gothra Vridhi Karap Prabho
Dehimey Thanayam Sheegram
Ayushmandham Yashashreenam!

Ayurveda indicates that pregnant women should sit or lie down on a mat containing Darbha grass or Kusha Grass during Grahan. It is also advised to keep some Kusha Grass with the pregnant woman. This is advised more during Surya Grahan or Solar Eclipse.

Some devout Hindus fast (Fasting or Upvaas) on Grahan day but pregnant women should avoid fasting and should follow the usual routine prescribed by the doctor.

The most important thing that pregnant women should do is to avoid getting tensed with the fear of grahan. Eclipse is a natural phenomenon. If you are so concerned remain indoors.

There are some evil-minded people in the guise of astrologers who try to take advantage of people during Grahan by suggesting costly pujas etc. Avoid such people.

Next Lunar Eclipse is on April 25/26 in 2013. You can find time and other details in this article.

Hi,
I am 9 weeks pregnant (almost 2 months and few days). I really want to know what kind precautions a pregnant lady should take and duration of precautions.
I am irritated at my elder women in my family as they themselve do not know the reason and still talking about certain terms like "Ved" and all.

I really want to know when does the effect will start in real world.

Clarification would be of great help else I will have to follow this rubbish ritual, and I too would not have any answer if my kids or anybody else asks me about solar or lunar eclipse effects.

It is visible in Bahrain and the time is from 3:46 PM to 7:18 PM.

To all pregnant woman it is clearly written in the article there is nothing to worry.

*********if pregnant women are so concerned stay indoor that is it. For fasting and eating consult your doctor.

Santosh said...

@Girish... it is people like you who give bad name to Hindu religion ...

What are you trying to say that this Grahan will specifically target Hindu pregnant women....

Please grow up and read Bhagavad Gita not astrology books.

Stop using words like bloody in a religious site.

I completely agree with the above comment, the internet is with a doubt growing into the most important medium of communication across the globe and its due to sites like this that ideas are spreading so quickly.
