Sharadiya Navratri starts on 2025, 22 September. A day before this, a solar eclipse will take place on 21 September. However, it will not be visible in India, so there will not be a sutak (sunrise). Let us know how it will have an impact on the installation of Kalash during Navratri.
Shardiya Navratri 2025: Today, on 21 September, the second and final solar eclipse of 2025 is being taken. This astronomical phenomenon is considered to be important from religious and astrological point of view. Significantly, Sharadiya Navratri is starting the next day. Sharadiya Navratri, dedicated to the worship of Goddess Durga and the practice of power, is celebrated with enthusiasm and devotion throughout India. Devotees are confused about whether the beginning of Navratri in the shadow of solar eclipse will have any effect on the Ghatasthapana process. Let us know about the auspicious time of Ghatasthapana and the precautions to be taken while putting up the mother’s post.
At what time will the solar eclipse end?
According to astrologers, the solar eclipse on September 21 will begin at 11:00 pm Indian time and end at 3:23 am. Its medieval period will take place at 1:11 pm. Since this eclipse will not appear in India, the Sutak period will not be valid.
Effect of solar eclipse
The first day of Navratri is considered extremely important for Ghatasthapana. Ghatasthapana is a symbol of the beginning of Navratri worship. According to the scriptures, Ghatasthapana should be done on the prescribed auspicious time. Since this solar eclipse will not be visible in India, it will not have any effect on Ghatasthapana and devotees can establish the urn at the scheduled time. However, astrologers suggest that three things must be done before the solar eclipse the next morning.
