Insomnia is caused when the Moon (Chandra) sits in the 12th House. The Moon represents the mind, and the 12th House represents sleep and expenses. Here, the mind gets "spent" on overthinking, irrational fears, and loneliness, causing you to wake up at 2-3 AM. Drinking milk from a silver glass helps calm the Moon.

Today is a Wednesday (Budhvar), ruled by Mercury. The Moon is transiting the communicative sign of Gemini (Mithun) under the Mrigashira Nakshatra. The presence of the highly auspicious 'Saubhagya Yoga' makes the morning excellent for intellectual work and relationships, but the afternoon is affected by Bhadra Kaal.

According to the Panchang, the "Vishti Karan" begins at 05:58 PM. In astrology, Vishti Karan is known as Bhadra Kaal, a period considered inauspicious for starting new projects, signing property deals, or conducting major financial transactions. You should complete all important work before sunset.

The donkey represents 'Tamogun' (the qualities of ignorance, lethargy, and darkness). Goddesses like Kaalratri and Sheetala Mata ride the donkey, symbolizing their power to control, absorb, or destroy the dark, lethargic, and diseased energies of the universe.
