Does anyone here believe in astrology/birth charts/remedies etc?
Back in my place, usually people with mental health issues have a weak placement of moon in their charts. And it is advised to look at moon everyday and pray to moon :-). Even when I analysed my birth chart, the astrologers usually immediately point out the weak placemennt of moon, and they immediately predict that I will have problems with my mood, and mood swings etc. (even before I tell them anything). And they advise me to say prayers to moon.
And they asked me to say prayers to some of our other Gods, and I have been doing that too.
Maybe that is a reason why I am doing well for the past 6 months. I have been praying or chanting regularly for the last 6 months, and have been out of depression.
It might sound silly, but I think belief and prayers definitely do help in mental health issues - more than I ever thought it would.
Just wanted to share. Has anyone ever tried anything similar or used prayers? I know this concept is not so much there in the west as in the east.
