What is Bhadra, why do you believe it inauspicious?
According to religious texts, Bhadra is the daughter of Suryadev and sister of Shani. Their form is very rare. As soon as she was born, she ran to eat the world, and everyone was frightened to see them. Then Brahmadev himself went to them and pacified them. It was Brahmadev who placed him in Karan (half part of the date). Bhadra lives from time to time in all three worlds. When Bhadra is on earth, any auspicious work is avoided. The coincidence of Bhadra is formed on the full moon date, so every year Rakhi is not tied during Bhadra on Raksha Bandhan.
How long will Bhadra last in 2025?
According to Pt. Praveen Dwivedi, Jyotishacharya of Ujjain, this time the time of Bhadra will start from August 8, Friday afternoon at 2.12 pm, which will end at 1.52 pm. That is, on August 9, Saturday, there will be no Bhadra on the day of Raksha Bandhan, due to which the sisters will be able to tie rakhi to their brother in auspicious time without fear of Bhadra.
