The Significance of Kharmas and Restrictions on Auspicious Activities

According to astrology, Kharmas begins when the Sun transits through the Pisces or Sagittarius zodiac signs (Ruled by Jupiter). During these transits, the influence of the Sun and Jupiter is diminished. Jupiter symbolises fortune and destiny, but during this time, all the favourable outcomes are believed to be reduced. Which is why all the auspicious ceremonies are prohibited, such as weddings, griha Pravesh, mundan, etc. Also, performing auspicious activities or rituals during this period may not bring favourable results.
