New Delhi, Feb 28: The first day of March kicks off with Ravi Pradosh Vrat, one of Lord Shiva’s most cherished observances. Devotees believe observing this fast absolves even the gravest past sins, bringing divine blessings and spiritual purification.
Pradosh Vrat occurs twice monthly, making this Sunday, March 1, a highlight for Shiva bhakts worldwide. The day promises auspicious vibes, free from Bhadra, ideal for launching new ventures after consulting the perfect muhurat.
Tithis shift as Trayodashi lingers until 7:09 PM, giving way to Chaturdashi. Sunrise graces the sky at 6:47 AM, sunset at 6:22 PM, with moonrise at 4:17 PM.
Prime muhurats include Abhijit from 12:11 PM to 12:58 PM, Godhuli 6:19 PM to 6:44 PM, and Amrit Kaal spanning 6:18 AM March 1 to 7:51 AM March 2. Brahm Muhurat opens the day 5:08 AM to 5:57 AM, while Vijay Muhurat runs 5:33 AM to 6:47 AM. Ravi Pushya Yoga adds extra fortune from 6:47 AM to 8:34 AM.
Steer clear of inauspicious slots: Rahu Kaal 4:55 PM to 6:22 PM, Gulikai 3:28 PM to 4:55 PM, Yamaganda 12:34 PM to 2:01 PM, Dur Muhurat 4:49 PM to 5:25 PM, and Varjyam 8:59 PM to 10:32 PM. Travel shuns the west direction due to Disha Shool.
This celestial alignment sets an optimistic tone for March, urging devotees to harness these timings for prosperity and peace.
