Auspicious events are prohibited during Kharmas, but wedding shopping is considered perfectly fine. Just remember not to buy mangalsutras, wedding rings, or bridal dresses. Other items can be purchased without worry, but please refrain from using them until the auspicious time.

Karma is the time when the Sun moves slowly from one zodiac sign to another. According to religious beliefs, auspicious events are suspended during this time. People avoid major events like weddings and housewarming ceremonies and adopt a simple routine.

According to Mahant Swami Kameshwaranand Vedantacharya, Kharmas will last from December 16, 2025, to January 14, 2026. He says that the Sun's power weakens during this period, making it inauspicious for auspicious events.

Religious belief holds that auspicious energy is diminished during this month. It is believed that the Sun's weakening also affects the planetary balance. For this reason, people avoid weddings, naming ceremonies, or starting any new auspicious work to avoid obstacles.

Marriage is considered a very sacred and auspicious event. Therefore, it is customary to perform it during favorable planetary alignments. Planetary positions during Kharmas are considered unfavorable, so families avoid undertaking major responsibilities like marriage during this time.

Even if a wedding isn't scheduled during Kharmas, there are no restrictions on shopping. People can freely purchase clothes, accessories, and gifts during this time. The only important thing to remember is that the items purchased should not be used until the auspicious date arrives.

Pundits believe that mangalsutras, wedding rings, and bridal dresses should not be purchased during Kharmas. Buying essential wedding items during the auspicious time is considered auspicious. There is no objection to purchasing other essential items.

It is perfectly fine to shop for a wedding during Kharmas, as it is not considered inauspicious. Just remember one rule: don't use the items purchased until the auspicious time arrives. It is best to use them only when the right time arrives.
