The twelfth lunar day, associated with completion, gift-giving, and breaking the Ekadashi fast. Governed by Vishnu — auspicious for charitable acts and honouring teachers.
Ruled by Saturn and governed by Ahir Budhnya, the serpent of the cosmic deep. Bestows profound wisdom, unshakeable steadiness, and the capacity for final liberation from conditioned existence.
The first yoga, bearing the weight of initial obstacles. Auspicious for strengthening foundations but requires patience — success comes through endurance rather than speed.
A movable karana, associated with the kula or family group. Favours domestic affairs, family rituals, and strengthening bonds of kinship.
Wednesday — the day of Mercury (Budha). Favours learning, writing, trade, communication, mathematics, and any activity requiring analytical precision and verbal skill.
