Dr KK Answers: What does Lord Shiva Moon with Ganges coming out means in mythology?

Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh mean ideation, doing and winding up of any job. When winding up we must make sure that we end up with inner happiness.

Shiva is depicted as Neelkanth means the one who has kept the slow poison (anger and alike) in the neck. One should neither drink the poison (suppress the emotions) nor spit it (expressive anger). One should keep it in the neck or try to neutralize it over time.

Moon symbolizes coldness and thoughts or in other word positive cooling thoughts.  Ganga is the flow of river or in other words the continuous flow of positive thoughts. This helps in neutralizing the Neelkanth or the poisonous thoughts kept in the neck
