What is Chandra Grahan$1

A Chandra Grahan (Lunar Eclipse) occurs when the Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon, casting its shadow on the Moon. In 2026, a Total Lunar Eclipse will be visible from India — making it religiously and astrologically significant. This eclipse falls on the Purnima of Shravan month, which amplifies its spiritual importance manifold.
