🌙 Moondust Noir — Chandra and Rohini: A Love That Moves the Moon What if the moon does not simply rise and fall— but remembers? In this haunting episode of Moondust Noir, we step into an ancient sky where love altered the cosmos itself. From the luminous courts of Hindu mythology emerges the story of Chandra, the moon god whose radiance once favored one star above all others—Rohini, the beloved whose presence drew him night after night, even as the heavens watched in quiet dissent. This is not a tale of perfection. It is a story of devotion that disrupts balance, of longing that invites consequence, and of a love so powerful it fractures time into cycles of becoming and disappearance. As jealousy brews among the stars and a divine curse takes hold, the moon begins to fade—only to be reborn again and again. Waxing. Waning. Returning. Retreating. An eternal rhythm born not of astronomy, but of the heart. Guided by the voice of Dr. Susan Rashid, physician and storyteller, this episode drifts between myth and memory, revealing why the moon still carries sorrow in its light—and why human love so often follows the same quiet pattern of closeness and loss. This is a meditation on favoritism and fate. On love that cannot stay—but never truly leaves. On the beauty of longing that survives time itself. Listen beneath the moon. Some stories are written in books. Others are written in light. 🌙

What if the moon does not simply rise and fall— but remembers?
In this haunting episode of Moondust Noir, we step into an ancient sky where love altered the cosmos itself. From the luminous courts of Hindu mythology emerges the story of Chandra, the moon god whose radiance once favored one star above all others—Rohini, the beloved whose presence drew him night after night, even as the heavens watched in quiet dissent.
This is not a tale of perfection.
It is a story of devotion that disrupts balance,
of longing that invites consequence,
and of a love so powerful it fractures time into cycles of becoming and disappearance.
As jealousy brews among the stars and a divine curse takes hold, the moon begins to fade—only to be reborn again and again. Waxing. Waning. Returning. Retreating. An eternal rhythm born not of astronomy, but of the heart.

This is a meditation on favoritism and fate.
On love that cannot stay—but never truly leaves.
On the beauty of longing that survives time itself.
Listen beneath the moon.
