Prajapati was searching for a suitable groom for his 27 daughters and he found Chandra as a better match for his daughter. Why he had such a desire to give all the daughters for one groom because he believed all the daughters are part of the same soul even though they are different in physique. He expected Chandra to treat all the wives equally, but Chandra was partial to Rohini, the red star. Chandra could never suppress or hide his dedication towards his favorite wife and Prajapati was angry because of this negligence. He cursed Chandra to grow weak out of tuberculosis and Chadra started to lose his luster.

When Chandra and his wives were distressed Lord Shiva came to his rescue, even though he could not reverse Prajapati’s curse Lord Shiva could retain his glory partially. That’s how Chadra waxes and wanes every two weeks.
