8th Lunar House Transit Warning Guide
Chandrashtama Days for Vrischika (Scorpio) Rasi in 2026
For individuals born under Vrischika (Scorpio) Moon sign, Chandrashtama occurs when the transiting Moon enters the 8th zodiac sign from your natal Rasi: Mithuna (Gemini).
In classical Vedic Muhurta, the Moon represents the manas (mind and emotional stability). When it passes through the 8th house of vulnerability and hidden stresses, decision-making clarity is temporarily dampened. This period recurs every ~27.3 days and lasts approximately 2¼ to 2½ days.
