Can anyone please suggest a gemstone for strenghting willpower. I dont have enough persistence to finish things I have began, my willpower is weak, my attitudes change frequently.
I have lagna in Aquarius, Sun, Mercury and Venus in Aries, 3d house. Moon in Virgo - 8th house. Jupiter is retro in Sagittarius, 11th house. Mars and Saturn also retrograde in Libra, 9th house. Rahu is in Taurus, 4th house and Ketu in Scorpio, 10th house.

Dear Tania

Stones never increase will power. Try Mahamrityuanjaya mantra and fasting (A sure method of improving will power).

God bless you

Dear Tania

Ideal is 108 rest as many times u r comfortable.
Actually it is believed that there're 27 nakshatra and each has 4 pada, totalling 108. So these affect our life.
Recitation 108 times is like putting ur prayer in every part of universe. Moon is Mann and for strengthening Moon, there's no other powerful tool than MM mantra.

My personal experience is fasting is one another method for improving will power. See this Mann is very chanchal and is always wandering. Its nature is to wander into past or the future. It never ever stops and always put us either in happy mode or in sadness. But it is channelised thru the energy of body. When the body dnt get food, all Mann can think of is: food. Have u noted whatever shock/agony we're going thru, the first break is when we feel hungry!
So when you associate something with food e.g. you wont take food if you dnt do 'x' work & actually do it for sometime, you'll find ur Mann is now listening to you.

Then psychology say "Do a thing for 21 days & it become part of you" You can form any habit or leave any habit by just practicing it for 21 days.

Though we practice astrology but to tell you the truth a person can defy planetary positions if his/her will power is strong. This is what Swami Vivekanand ji and Paramhans Yoganand ji have demonstrated in their lives.

God bless you

Dear Dr Neeraj,
thank you for your explanation! Yesterday I recited MM mantra 108 times and last night I had an interesting dream. I was in my grandparents house but it was a new, nice house with many flowers and trees in the garden. The small river near the house had turned into a huge, deep river with clean water.
I think this is a sign for transformation and good changes in my life. Currently Ketu is transiting over natal Rahu in 4th house and i believe that all things that have happened to me recently are not accidental.
I will follow your advice and start fasting but which day would be most beneficial for me?
Thank you for your explanation and advice!

To start with Fast on Ekadashi days.
This comes only twice a month. Take only fruits and milk. If possible dnt use sugar & salt.

God bless you

Dr.Neerajji,
sometimes I am pressed for time, so I do 54 counts of Hreem Nama Shivaya and 54 counts of MahaMrityunjay Mantra. does it still work? sometimes i do full mala of MMM especially on shivaratri etc.
tripura.

Its better if you do the same mantra (whichever) for 108 times.
