Talking about the economic consequences of the pandemic, the companies are firing staff in an effort to save their businesses.

Considering all this, it is expected that the need for psychological support will largely increase in the coming months and years.

Role of Astrology in diagnosing Mental Health Issues

Astrology can assist to diagnose these problems and answer them accurately.

Moon, Mercury and Jupiter are the key planets responsible for the soundness of the mind. When these planets - along with fifth, sixth house - are afflicted by any means, then a person is likely to suffer from mental illness.

Astrologically speaking, Moon signifies mind, thoughts, and feelings. A Strong Moon gives effective thinking skills, hidden powers of imagination and an innovative bent of mind. However, if Moon is weak, the person becomes prone to mental disorders like Schizophrenia, Depression, Sleep deficiency, and menstruation issues.

Moon is considered weak in a chart when some malefic planet aspects the Moon. This also causes mental illness. Furthermore, when Moon is in the Sixth, Eighth or Twelfth house, it causes lack of concentration.

If Rahu and Moon are in the ascendant and any malefic planet is posited in the trine houses, then there are chances that the person may suffer from anxiety disorders such as Phobia.  

Mental Peace- The Fourth House and Moon are the significator of Mental serenity.

Emotional Peace- The Fifth House and Moon are the significator of emotional wellbeing.

Nervous Control- The Sixth House and Mercury signify healthy nervous system.

Depression– The Fifth House indicates depression and anxiety disorders.
