The position of Moon is very important from\r\nthe perspective of prosperity.A strong Moon,powerful in digit strength,can\r\ngive immense courage to the native and courage is essential for prosperity.\r\nProsperity depends on the position of Moon &amp; Jupiter, the indicator of\r\nwealth. The Moon is considered as a natural benefic in Vedic Astrology. She\r\nrepresents Mother and Mind, mano matharo sheeta rashmi.\r\n\r\nMoon has only strength if he has digit strength. He should not come within\r\n72 degrees of the Sun, to be powerful.\r\n\r\nIts regular cycle of lunar phases and its prominence in the heavens have\r\nmade Luna an important cultural influence on Mythology, language, calenders\r\nand art. Moon's gravitational influence causes ocean tides and the minute\r\nlengthening of the day. Her current orbital distance, about Earth's diameter\r\nmakes her  appear as big as the Sun and allowing her to cover the Sun nearly\r\nprecisely in solar eclipses.\r\n\r\nMoon in Mythology. Mythology is the representation of astronomical truths.\r\n\r\nThere is a mythological story, occurring in the Devi Bhagavatha, that Moon\r\ntook the twenty seven daughters of Daksha as his wives. His 27 wives are the 27\r\nconstellations ! Poetic allegory has it that he circumambulates the Zodiac\r\n( allegorically depicted asMaha Meru ) with his 27 consorts ! Moon gets exalted in Taurus. As he shines\r\nbright and brilliant in Rohini, he was called Rohini priya by the Sanskrit\r\npoets. Rohini, the brightest star in Taurus, is Aldebaran, with a visual magnitude of 0.85 and\r\nis a red and beautiful orange star; It lies within 50 of the ecliptic and is\r\ntherefore periodically occulted by the Moon. That is why it is said that Rohini or\r\nAldebaran is loved most !\r\n\r\nMeteorologists must study Varaha's claim that Rohini Yoga occurring when\r\nthe Moon is in contact with Rohini in the dark fortnight of the lunar month\r\nof Ashada determines the agricultural prospects for the year.\r\n\r\nMantra For the Moon\r\n\r\n\r\nRohineesa sudhamoorthim\r\nSudha gatra sudhasana\r\nVishama Sthana sambhootam\r\nPeedam harathu me vidhuh\r\n\r\nDhadhi Shankha Thusharabham\r\nKsheerodharnava Sambhavam\r\nNamami Shashinam Somam\r\nShambhor Makuta Bhooshanam\r\n\r\nO Thou who adorns the head of the mighty Lord Siva !
