Kharmas Ends, Auspicious Works Resume
For the past month, all auspicious activities have been on hold due to the observance of Kharmas. In Hinduism, Kharmas is a period during which all sacred and celebratory rituals are considered inauspicious. However, Kharmas will end in exactly 21 days, as the Sun transits into Aries, marking the return of favorable planetary positions. The echoes of Shehnai music and wedding processions will soon fill the air as weddings and other auspicious events resume. According to Jyotish Acharyas (astrology experts), the best Muhurat for marriage in 2025 will be from April 14 to June 9, following the rise of Jupiter on March 23.
Why Are Auspicious Works Not Performed During Kharmas?
Kharmas is considered inauspicious for performing sacred rituals due to the weak energy of the Sun, which is essential for prosperity and positive outcomes. In astrology, Jupiter (Guru) is the planet of fortune and wisdom, and its unfavorable position during Kharmas can diminish the success of auspicious ceremonies. Therefore, marriages and other sacred events are postponed until this period ends.
When Will Kharmas End in 2025?
According to astrologers, Kharmas lasts for one month, starting when the Sun moves into Pisces. This year, Kharmas began on March 14, 2025, and will end on April 13, 2025. After this, all auspicious ceremonies, including marriages, housewarming, and business inaugurations, can resume.
Best Marriage Muhurats from April to June 2025
From April 14 to June 9, there will be a highly favorable period for weddings. However, after June 9, Guru (Jupiter) will set, stopping marriage ceremonies 27 days before Devshayani Ekadashi. Astrologers emphasize that in Sanatan Dharma, no religious or sacred ceremony is conducted without consulting an auspicious Muhurat.
Devshayani Ekadashi on July 6, 2025
On July 6, 2025, the Devshayani Ekadashi will occur, marking the period when deities rest in Kshirsagar (celestial ocean) under the guidance of Lord Vishnu for four months. During this phase, no auspicious works, including marriages, will be performed. The next phase of auspicious Muhurats will resume on November 2, 2025, with Devuthani Ekadashi.
