Don't make these mistakes during Kharmas (Kharmas March 2026 Don'ts)

• Marriage and Engagement - During Kharmas, the power of Jupiter, the Guru of the Gods, diminishes. It is essential for Jupiter to be auspicious for marriage, so weddings are avoided during this period.
• Housewarming and tonsure ceremonies – Entering a new home or shaving the head of a child is also not performed during this period. It is believed that this reduces happiness and prosperity.
• Purchase of land or vehicle – Kharmas is not considered good for purchasing land, house or a new vehicle.
• Starting a new business – Starting any new business should be avoided at this time.

Why is Kharmas considered inauspicious?

The Sun God travels around the universe on a chariot drawn by seven horses. When his horses tire and stop during the journey, he resumes his journey with donkeys. Donkeys are slow, thus diminishing the Sun's radiance. Furthermore, astrologically, the Sun's presence in Jupiter's zodiac sign diminishes Jupiter's auspiciousness, which  prevents auspicious activities , as Jupiter's auspicious position is essential for any auspicious task.

What to do in Kharmas? (Kharmas March 2026 Dos)

• Worshiping Lord Vishnu and Shri Krishna in this month is very fruitful.
• During this time, reciting 'Aditya Hridaya Stotra' improves self-confidence and health.
• During this time, donating grains, clothes and jaggery to the needy brings auspicious results.
