Kharmas 2025: Why are auspicious and religious ceremonies not performed during Kharmas? Read the real reason here...

During Kharmas, marriages, housewarmings, naming ceremonies, head-shaving ceremonies, or the commencement of any new venture are prohibited because, according to religious beliefs, the energy cycles remain stable during this time. It is also considered a period of rest for the deities. Astrology also states that the auspicious positions of the planets are not active, which reduces the positive results of auspicious activities.

The Influence of the Sun God's Movement
Karma begins when the Sun God enters the Sagittarius zodiac sign, and this position is considered extremely special from an astronomical perspective. During the Sagittarius transit, the Sun's movement begins to shift towards the north, which is considered a transitional period.

During this period, the Sun's energy is considered slower than usual; therefore, according to religious and astrological beliefs, it is considered unsuitable for auspicious activities. When the Sun is not at its full brilliance, the auspicious influence of the planets also becomes stable. For this reason, the scriptures advise against all auspicious activities and new beginnings during this time.

Why are Auspicious Yogas Not Formed?
According to astrological beliefs, the success of any auspicious activity depends on the compatibility of the planets, constellations, and energy cycles. During Kharmas, the position of the Sun God is considered weak, due to which auspicious yogas (planetary combinations) are not formed.

During this time, the auspicious influence of the planets is not effective, and obstacles may arise in the planetary periods, which reduces the positive results of new ventures. Astrology states that when planetary energy is stable or sluggish, auspicious activities started during this time do not yield the expected results. Therefore, it is advised to postpone all auspicious activities during this period.

What should be done during Kharmas?
Bathing during the Brahma Muhurta (pre-dawn hours) during the Kharmas period purifies the body, mind, and energy cycles.

Offering water to the Sun God increases positive energy and vitality.

Donating sesame seeds, jaggery, grains, and clothes is considered highly meritorious, as it symbolizes compassion, purity, and service.

Chanting mantras and meditation bring stability, calmness, and spiritual depth to the mind of the practitioner. At this time, serving those in need is considered especially meritorious.

Overall, Kharmas provides an opportunity for self-reflection, restraint, and spiritual growth.
