Lunar Eclipse: Pregnant Women Must Avoid These Actions to Protect Unborn Child

• Ujjain-based astrologer Pandit Anand Bhardwaj advises pregnant women to be cautious during a lunar eclipse due to increased negativity and potential impact on the unborn child.
• Pregnant women should avoid direct exposure to moonlight and going outside during the eclipse, as moon's rays are considered inauspicious.
• The lunar eclipse on March 3 will last from 3:19 PM to 6:47 PM; the Sutak period begins 12 hours prior, during which auspicious activities are avoided.
• Avoid cooking and eating during the eclipse; refrain from using sharp objects like needles, knives, and scissors to prevent harm to the fetus.
• Chant mantras, especially to the Moon god, and as a remedy, pregnant women can place a thread equal to their height in the house and discard it in flowing water after the eclipse.
