A difficult day
The Moon today
The Moon is in Scorpio today — the 12th house from Sagittarius (unfavourable). Money drains away, eyes and health suffer, worry grows, and energy is wasted on pointless or harmful impulses.
What the book says
Bodily suffering, especially fear of eye disease; loss of money and honour; no support from children; mounting worries; heavy expenditure. Varahi Samhita adds that the Moon here makes one behave like a maddened bull, wasting strength on harmful acts.
