The Moon or Chandra is regarded as a planet in Vedic astrology. It rules aspects like beauty, mother, emotions, mind, and imagination. A weak or afflicted Moon causes heart and lung problems, asthma, loose motions, kidney and uterus problems, jaundice, epidemics, fear of water, cold, swelling in lungs etc. One with a strong Moon is often peaceful and successful. A weak Moon makes a person lazy and sleepy. They may be restless, and their mind will be fearful. Chanting this Mantra during Chandra Dasa or Bhukti helps remove the malefic effects of the Moon and brings benefits. The Mantra should be chanted at least 3654 times.
