New Delhi: After Devuthani Ekadashi, the wedding season is about to start once again. There will be increased commotion in the houses where wedding preparations are going on. Bands, guests, food and shopping everything will start again. This year Devuthani Ekadashi is falling on 20th November. It is said that on this day Lord Vishnu wakes up from his sleep.
And as soon as they wake up, the auspicious time for weddings also opens. But this time there is a problem. From Devuthani Ekadashi till the end of the year, only 11 days are auspicious for weddings. The reason is Kharmas. Kharmas will start from 16th December, and getting married in Kharmas is not considered good. Therefore, people have very few days left for marriage.
Auspicious dates of November and December
According to the Panchang, the first auspicious time for marriage is on 24th November and the last auspicious time is on 12th December. All marriages will have to be settled in between this. Now let's talk about November. There are total 4 auspicious times in November. The first is on Saturday, November 21st. The second on Tuesday, November 24. The third is on Wednesday, November 25 and the fourth is on Thursday, November 26. There are a few more days in December. There are total 7 auspicious times in December. Starting from Wednesday, December 2, marriages can take place on Thursday, December 3, Friday, December 4, Saturday, December 5 and Sunday, December 6. After this, the last two Muhurtas are on Friday 11th December and Saturday 12th December.
What is Kharmas and why is Muhurta important?
Now you must be wondering what exactly Kharmas is? So listen, on 16th December the Sun will enter Sagittarius. Kharmas will start from that very day itself. Our elders say that no auspicious work should be done during Kharmas. Works like marriage, mundan, housewarming etc are stopped during this period. Kharmas comes twice a year. Once in December-January and second time in March-April.
When the Sun is in Sagittarius and Pisces, then Kharmas occurs. Now the question is why is it so important to see the auspicious time for marriage? Actually, in Hindu religion it is believed that if marriage happens on the right day and at the right time, the life of husband and wife goes well. There is happiness and peace in the house. That's why Pandit ji tells the date only after seeing the date, constellation and yoga. Along with this, the horoscopes of the boy and the girl are also mixed.
