Vedic Analogy: The Moon and the Mind
In Vedic astrology, the Moon
is the significator of the mind—fluid, reflective, and impressionable.
Just as the Moon reflects
light but never generates its own, the mind reflects objects but never
grasps them directly.
What we perceive is not
the object itself, but its mental aspect—a lunar reflection
shaped by our inner state.
“The mind does not see
the world—it shapes it. What we call perception is the Moon’s dance with form.”
