Chandra Grahan and Hindus
Usually during a Chandra Grahan, a fast (Upvaas) is observed by certain communities in Hindu religion. The fast begins about 9 hours before the beginning of Chandra Grahan.
People also take a bath in cold water and chant mantras dedicated to Lord Vishnu or Shiva like the Ashtakshara Mantra or Mrityunjaya Mantra. This is done whenever Surya and Chandra are under the influence of Rahu. Pregnant women chant the Santana Gopala Mantra.

No, It has no material if the Granam is in your place or not, if Hindu then see that you worship on that day accordingly.
According to traditional way , when Devas churned the ocean Asuras tried to get nectar, but this was found out by Sun and Moon for which they were divided as Rahu and Kethu. At that time since they worshiped for their sins they were pardoned and one was with head and the other tail. Please be aware that Rahu and Kethu are not true planets they are Shadow planets. They move in reverse direction only. They are like some constants which in scientific purpose we introduce like (Pi=3.14), or Avagadros Constant etc. They form the Node of the moon. Some times people work ship by moving reverse, Note it should be worshiped like all other planets. The reason why we have to take bath at that time is reflected light i.e Scattered light has wavelength inverse of lamda power four, Rayeligh Scattering. The intensity is high to humans. So we do not eat as nutritive material gets eliminated of high intensity and take bath cook fresh and eat. So where ever you are light travels at 3*10 power 8 meters per sec, so please do it if you follow Hinduism. It is scientific. If u want more please let me know i will be happy to clear yours.

If you believe in astrology, then certain Rasi people will have bad effects and some will have good effects.
OK. Thanx. Actually i have heard that grahan is not GOOD for pregnant women, it effects on child..
Is it true ?
No this won't have any effect on pregnant woman and child. There is no scientific basis for this.

Solar and lunar eclipses are reminders of the Day of Judgment, when the sun, moon and stars will all lose their light. "When the sight is dazed, and the moon is buried in darkness, and the sun and moon are joined together: Man will say on that day, ‘Where is the refuge?’" (Surat al-Qiyamah, the Resurrection)Being a reminder of the Last Day, the eclipse is a time for prayer, charitable acts, freeing slaves and generally remembering Allah and seeking His forgiveness.
We ask Allah to enable us to heed His Signs and turn to Him always, Amin.
It's unbelievable creation of God. With due respect,in hinduism,being the oldest religion,yet so organized. It shows path in every aspect of our life. Today,for the first time i saw lunar eclipse. I tried to do the things what should be withheld during this time period. I may not gain anything,bt i believe by the grace of God,i will not even loose anything. Those who donot abide by the rules and donot loose the baby inside her,is extremely good and okey. But one who loses,that's 100% loss for her.
I am a Hindu but am not religious. I witnessed the whole eclipse from my terrace, just to see the beauty of this awesome natural phenomenon! And yes, because I wanted to photograph it. After it was over, I came back down, had a bath and slept like a log!
What I want to know is why are people warned to remain indoors? Is it bad for health? Are there any scientific reasons behind this?
I am lisa,from what I can read. It has been sad news and scam to everyone about Voodoo casters or so. But to me they are so real cause one worked for me not quite two weeks. I traveled down to where his shrine his and we both did the ritual and sacrifice. and now me and my ex are living very ok now.I don't know about you but Voodoo is real;love marriage,finance, job promotion ,lottery Voodoo,poker voodoo,golf Voodoo,Law & Court case Spells,money voodoo,weigh loss voodoo,diabetic voodoo,hypertensive voodoo,high cholesterol voodoo,Trouble in marriage,Barrenness(need a child),Luck, Money Spells,it's all he does. I used my money to purchase everything he used he never collected a dime from. He told me I can repay him anytime with anything from my heart. Now I don't know how to do that. If you can help or you need his help write him on (nativedoctor101@live.com) Thank you.
HI,
WE have fixed wedding of our daughter in Delhi on Dec 10th 2011 eve 7 pm onwards. Now we came to know about the eclipse. Do we need to make changes in the ritual time. We are in dilemma. Pl guide us. Thanks.
Marriages should not be held during the period. If you are residing in India or places in the path of eclipse.
December 11 is a good date. December 9 is also a good date.
Thx for your prompt reply. Is it possible to have the wedding ceremony after the eclipse at around 10 pm since we have already fixed the date/venue?Instead of the ceremony is it ok to serve dinner during the eclipse period and have the muhurat after it?
Traditional Hindus do not eat during eclipse. They keep a fast.
After the eclipse is over most temples have cleansing pujas. Auspicious events are held only after this period.
If you live a region where eclipse is not given importance then you can go ahead with the function. I do not know which region you are from.
Hi , The wedding is going to be at Delhi. We are in Singapore. Can we have the ceremony on 10th morning. Though we need to check for the availability of the Venue. Can we call you? pl give us your contact no.Thanks so much
There is no muhurat on December 10 in India. It is also not good to perform auspicious ceremony on Grahan day.
If you are forced to do on the day you can go ahead and do it. Offer prayers to Ganesh and Shiva.
You can perform the ceremony on December 9 or December 11.
if there is chandra grahan dosha in kundli will the ill effects be reduced by taking bath
what time is the Chander graghan in Auckland ..new zealnd on 10dec 11....plz verify....
Lunar Eclipse Auckland time on 10 december 2011 is from - 00:46 hrs on December 11 to 04:18 hrs on December 11.
We are having Mata ka Jagran on 10 Dec. 2011 from 6.00PM till 9.00PM dinner and from 10.00 PM till 7.00AM Jagran, can it be done.
No worship should be performed during the period. It is also a period of fasting. So you cannot perform jagran during the period.
Excellent Information.. thanks for sharing...
Dear pregnant ladies living abroad. The only precautions you need to take during an eclipse is to ensure your hubby is wearing a rubber. With 7 billion people already crowding the planet, the last thing we need is more idiots who think precautions need to be taken during a lunar eclipse. just look at the moon as it crosses the earth's shadow, thank galileo, kepler and newton for bringing us out of the dark ages and most importantly make sure your kids choose the science stream.
I am pregnant and I live in UK, I heard that the eclipse is not visible in UK, but still do I need to take precautions??
We are planning a birthday party for my father on 10th dec 2011. Is that ok?
@Hari Priya....the eclipse in England is during the afternoon. It is not visible for most period. No you don't need to take any precautions.
@ birthday party should be done before 3:00 PM
I am pregnant and I live in USA (Houston, Texas), I heard that the eclipse is visible in USA, can you please advice me on timing and precautions that need to be taken??
@ Houston...the grahan is slightly visible during morning hours at 06:46 on December 10. You don't need to worry about it or take any precautions.

Hello
We live in Pune and my wife is Pregnant and in the 8th month currently. Since you have mentioned that Pregnant ladies need not fast, could you kindly guide us on what can she eat during the Eclipse- I mean is it ok to eat home cooked food or packed and sealed food options like biscuits and cake. After the grahan she is planning to take a bath and eat home cooked food. Should we consider the end of grahan as 9.48 PM or 11 PM as some sites are mentioning that the prenumbra period gets over only at 11PM.
Many thanks for this valuable information and guidance.
In Hindu tradition importance is given to Grahan Sparsh kal and Grahan Moksha kal...Grahan Moksha Kal is at 9:48 PM.
For pregnant woman it is a normal day and they should normal things.
