Viral Turmeric Glass Trend Raises Alarms: Astrologer Warns of Hidden Dangers Behind the Social Craze
What starts as a harmless visual trend can sometimes carry deeper implications than we realize. A new social media experiment involving turmeric, water, and flashlight phones has captivated users across platforms. With just a glass, a spoonful of turmeric, and the glow of a mobile torch in a dark room, people are creating what looks like a surreal, glowing spectacle—almost magical in appearance.
But behind the viral aesthetic lies a rising wave of concern from the spiritual community. What many see as a fun science-meets-art moment, some astrologers argue, may unknowingly mimic ancient occult rituals—potentially opening doors to negative energies that were never meant to be disturbed.
What’s the Trend All About?
The idea is simple: fill a glass with water, add a spoonful of turmeric, place it over the flashlight on your mobile phone, and turn off the lights. The result? A hypnotic, layered effect as turmeric slowly settles down in the water, glowing eerily under the torchlight. Social media users are calling it “magical” and “soothing,” with videos quickly racking up views and likes. Even adults have jumped on the trend, not wanting to miss out on the viral action.
Some netizens have even jokingly remarked that if the trend continues, “turmeric supplies in India might run out!”
The Astrological Alarm: More Than Just a Trend?
Not everyone finds the trend amusing. Astrologer Arun Kumar Vyas has come forward with a strong warning: this isn’t just a visual experiment—it’s a ritualistic practice rooted in occult traditions.
According to Vyas, the process of dropping turmeric into water and placing it under a light in the dark mirrors a technique used by tantriks (occult practitioners) to attract or communicate with spiritual entities such as ghosts or wandering souls. “What seems like an innocent trend can unknowingly invite dark, negative energies into your home,” he warns.
He adds that repeating this activity—especially at night—could lead to the presence of harmful forces, which might bring along a series of issues including:
- Physical ailments
- Emotional or mental distress
- Financial instability
- In some extreme cases, even spiritual disturbances or “possession”
Astrological Consequences: A Subtle Yet Serious Impact
Beyond the immediate risks, there may also be subtle astrological consequences. Vyas explains that this kind of ritual can interfere with the balance of planets in your natal chart—particularly affecting the strength of Chandra (Moon) and Guru (Jupiter).
In astrology, the Moon governs your mind and emotions, while Jupiter represents wisdom, fortune, and spiritual well-being. Weakening these celestial influences could result in:
- Mental unrest or anxiety
- Poor decision-making
- A downturn in luck or destiny
- Disruption in personal growth and peace of mind
What seems like a playful activity could, in the eyes of astrology, disturb the energetic harmony in your life and home.
It’s easy to dismiss such warnings in today’s tech-driven, logic-based world. But cultural practices and spiritual traditions often hold deeper meanings than what appears on the surface. Whether or not you believe in astrology or the spiritual realm, it’s worth being cautious with rituals or trends that mimic traditional mystic techniques—especially those involving elements like turmeric, which holds deep spiritual significance in Indian culture.
After all, not everything that glows is good—and some viral trends may bring more than just views.
