News Topical, Digital Desk : Kalbhairav Jayanti is celebrated to commemorate the fierce form of Lord Shiva, when he assumed the form of Bhairava to destroy the arrogance of Lord Brahma. This day is not only a day of worship, but also a symbol of victory over fear and the protection of dharma. Every year, this festival falls on the Ashtami (eighth day) of the Krishna Paksha (dark fortnight) of the month of Agahan. In 2025, this auspicious birth anniversary will be celebrated on Wednesday, November 12th. Auspicious combinations such as Brahma Yoga, Shukla Yoga, and Ashlesha Nakshatra are forming on this day, which are considered highly auspicious for spiritual practice, tantric worship, and Bhairava adoration.
Yogas formed on this day
The day will begin with Shukla Yoga, which will last until 8:02 AM. Shukla Yoga strengthens purity of mind and sattvic feelings. Following this, Brahma Yoga will prevail throughout the day, which is considered best for knowledge, spiritual practice, and mantra siddhi. Additionally, Balava Karana (until 10:57 AM) and Kaulava Karana (until 10:58 AM) will be in effect on this day, both of which are auspicious for worship and the beginning of the fast.
This Kal Bhairav Jayanti, a rare confluence of Ashtami Tithi, Ashlesha Nakshatra, Shukla Yoga, Brahma Yoga, and Kaulava Karana is forming. This day will be extremely auspicious for devotion, spiritual practice, and achieving protection. Donating lamps, reciting Bhairav Chalisa, and feeding dogs at night brings special merit.
The union of Shukla Yoga and Brahma Yoga bestows spiritual power, self-control, and freedom from fear upon the practitioner. This day is not only about worship, but also symbolizes the victory of light over darkness, fearlessness over fear, and knowledge over ignorance.
Date and time of worship
This year, the Ashtami Tithi of Kalbhairav Jayanti will begin at 11:08 PM on November 11th and will continue until 10:58 PM on November 12th. This entire period is considered highly sacred for worshipping Lord Kalbhairav, especially worshiping at night brings quick results to the devotee.
Ashtami Tithi is considered best for tantric and esoteric practices, as the energy of this day is directly connected to Bhairava Sadhana. When this Tithi falls on Wednesday, the planetary power of Mercury multiplies the benefits of Bhairava worship, making the ritual extremely fruitful.
Nakshatras and planetary positions
On November 12th, the influence of Ashlesha Nakshatra will be prevalent throughout the day, remaining active until 6:35 PM. This Nakshatra is considered highly favorable for mystical practices, Bhairava worship, and tantric accomplishments. Under the influence of this Nakshatra, the practitioner's mind becomes more focused, serious, and spiritual.
This nakshatra awakens intuition and deepens devotion. After evening, when the Moon enters Leo, courage and self-confidence will increase. The Sun in Libra guides us on this day towards balance and discernment, creating a beautiful balance between devotion and power.
