Why are we so obsessed with the Moon?

By @fatima_okoro

I’ve been watching the current transits today, especially with the Moon sitting in Purva Bhadrapada. It’s got me thinking about how we prioritize the mind over the heart.

We’re constantly checking our charts for the Moon sign to explain why we feel moody or anxious. But is it really doing all the work? Or are we just using it as a scapegoat for our own inability to deal with our family dynamics?

I see so many people get stuck in their heads, tracking these lunar movements while their homes feel like war zones. Don't get me wrong, the Moon is important. It’s our emotional blueprint. But sometimes I feel like we use astrology to justify being distant instead of actually showing up for the people we love.

When I look at my own family, it’s not about the stars. It’s about being present. Are we actually using these insights to grow, or are we just hiding behind a screen?

If you’re trying to find a better time for a difficult conversation with a relative, don't just guess. Use the Choghadiya timings to pick a moment when the energy is actually supportive.

What do you think? Are we using the Moon to understand ourselves, or are we just running away from the hard work of building real, solid relationships?

With the Moon now resting in Shatabhisha, your space feels a bit scattered, so clear your North-facing desk of all clutter to sharpen your focus. It’s a small, grounded act that keeps your thoughts clear while you track these transits on Vyom.

Since the Moon is currently in Purva Bhadrapada, keep your workspace North-facing to stabilize that restless energy. It’s a simple shift that helps you stay grounded while you’re calculating your next move on Vyom.

We're clearly using the stars to offload the mental tax of decision-making, though the Moon’s current position in Shatabhisha suggests a need for objective, analytical distance rather than just emotional venting. I track these shifts on Vyom because I prefer raw data over intuition when the pressure's on to make a logical call.

We're obsessed because the Moon holds our mind's fluctuations, and with it currently in Purva Bhadrapada, it’s stirring up some deep, unresolved baggage. Do you think we’re actually looking for guidance, or just trying to outsource our personal choices to the sky?
