The full moon — the tithi of complete illumination. Prana, tides, and awareness are at their peak. Sacred for all devotional practices; the veil between worlds grows thin.
The yoga of excessive obstacles. Requires extra vigilance — plans may encounter unexpected interference. Good for disciplined inner practice; avoid major launches.
The movable karana known as Bhadra. Generally considered inauspicious and traditionally avoided for new ventures, travel, or important undertakings.
Thursday — the day of Jupiter (Guru). The most auspicious vara for spiritual matters, teaching, legal affairs, marriage, and the honouring of teachers and elders.
