In astrology, Mercury is considered a factor of intelligence, discretion, and speech. If Mercury is weak in your child's horoscope, it directly impacts their education and behavior. Here, we share this problem and its solutions according to astrology.

Symptoms and Effects of Mercury Dosha in Children
When the position of Mercury (Budh Grah) is not favorable in children's horoscopes, certain changes are observed in them. The most prominent symptom is a lack of concentration. The child sits down to study, but their mind repeatedly wanders.
Mercury is directly related to our reasoning ability. If this planet is afflicted, the child hesitates to express their views clearly to others. Sometimes, a stutter or lisp can also be seen in the child due to this defect.
Such children often feel lethargic, and their decision-making ability decreases. They start getting nervous over small things, which weakens their self-confidence.
Special Astrological Remedies for Wednesday
Wednesday is considered the best day to alleviate Mercury Dosha. Here are some simple and effective remedies:
Worship of Lord Ganesha: Have your child offer 'Durva' (green grass) to Lord Ganesha on Wednesday. Ganesha is the god of wisdom, and worshipping him calms the planet Mercury.
Importance of the color green: Increase the use of green in your child's clothing. Furthermore, donating green mung beans on Wednesday is considered very auspicious.
Cow Service: According to religious texts, feeding green fodder to a cow rapidly reduces the negative effects of Mercury Dosha. It is even more beneficial if the child feeds the cow with their own hands.
Chanting the Beej Mantra: If the child is older, they may be advised to chant the mantra 'Om Bum Budhaya Namah'. This brings mental clarity.

Behavioral Changes and Improvements
Astrological efforts are also essential. Engage your child in creative activities like learning music or painting. According to astrology, Mercury also rules arts and crafts, so these activities strengthen the planet.
