Navratri is one of the most significant festivals in the Hindu calendar. There are four types of Navratri of which Shardiya Navratri and Chaitra Navratri are the most popular. The auspicious occasion of Shardiya Navratri is nearby and devotees are all gearing up to celebrate the festival.
According to the Hindu calendar, Shardiya Navratri is celebrated every year from Pratipada to Navami of Shukla Paksha of Ashwin month. The nine-day festival is dedicated to honouring Goddess Durga in her nine divine forms, each with its unique symbolism. Along with this, people observed fasts for nine days to seek the blessings of Goddess Durga.
While talking to Local18, Haridwar’s renowned astrologer Pandit Shridhar Shastri said that according to the Hindu calendar, the Pratipada date of Shukla Paksha of Ashwin month will start on October 3 at 12.18 pm. At the same time, this date will end on October 4 at 02.58 am. In Sanatan Dharma, the date is calculated from the sunrise. Therefore, Shardiya Navratri will start on October 3.
According to astrology, this year, Navratri is a combination of Hasta Nakshatra and Chitra Nakshatra. During this time, all the pending work will be completed and auspicious results will be obtained. Hasta Nakshatra has been described as very special and important in astrology. According to astrology, if any resolution is made in Hasta Nakshatra, it gets fulfilled.
Pandit Shridhar Shastri further said that there is a coincidence of Hasta Nakshatra and Chitra Nakshatra on October 3. This year, Shardiya Navratri is celebrated from October 3 to October 11. Dussehra or Vijayadashami will fall on October 12. The importance of Shardiya Navratri and Hasta Nakshatra is associated with Lord Rama. The auspicious time for Ghat establishment on Shardiya Navratri is from 6.15 am to 7.22 am on October 3, while the Abhijeet Muhurta is from 11:46 am to 12:33 pm.
He explained that before the final battle with Ravana, Lord Rama had resolved to worship the Goddess and worshipped the Goddess for nine days, after which she was pleased and blessed him with victory. According to religious texts, Lord Rama fought the last battle with Ravana in Hasta Nakshatra. The Hasta Nakshatra is considered very superior from a religious point of view and the resolution made from a religious point of view in this period will definitely be fulfilled.
