Raksha Bandhan: Why Rakhi is not tied during Bhadra period? The reason is related to Shani

 Rakhi, the symbol of brother-sister love, is being celebrated on 30 August.  In such a situation, preparations have started regarding this.  On this day, sisters tie Raksha Sutra, a sacred symbol of love and protection, around the brother's wrist.  On the day of Rakshabandhan, there is a custom of tying rakhi to the watch.  However, this year, Bhadra Kaal is being observed on the day of Rakhi, which will take place on 30 August.  According to religious beliefs, auspicious works are not done during the Bhadra period.  This is the reason why Rakhi is not tied during Bhadra period.  In such a situation, this year the festival of Raksha Bandhan will be celebrated for two days on 30 and 31 August.  Because Bhadra will fall on August 30, tying Rakhi at this time is not considered auspicious at all.  Let's know what is the reason behind not tying Rakhi in Bhadrakal and who was Bhadra?

Know who is Bhadra

 According to religious beliefs, Bhadra is the younger sister of Shaniden.  It is said that Bhadra was born in Rahukaal.  For this reason Bhadra's nature is fierce and turbulent.  For whom she thinks bad, only bad happens to him.  Bhadra also used to think badly about her brother Shani and due to this Shani had to face many problems in his life.  And according to mythology, Suparnakha tied rakhi to her brother Ravana in Bhadra.  After this, he incited Dashanan to abduct Sita by lying.  After this Ravana was annihilated.  At the behest of the gods and goddesses, Bhadra cast her shadow at the time of Ravana's death.  By tying Rakhi in Bhadra period, the entire clan of Ravana was destroyed.

auspicious time to tie rakhi

 This year, Raksha Bandhan will start from 10.59 am on 30th August and the auspicious time of Raksha Bandhan is being formed on 31st August from 7.05 am to 5.00 am.  However, Bhadra will end on 30th at 9:01 PM.  At the same time, the full moon date will end by 7 am on the 31st.  In such a situation, looking at the condition of Bhadra, it would be auspicious to celebrate the festival of Raksha Bandhan before 7 am on 31st.
