Shardiya Navratri 2024 / There is a solar eclipse before Navratri, know the auspicious time for Kalash installation

Shardiya Navratri 2024: An important astronomical event is going to happen before Shardiya Navratri this year. The last solar eclipse of the year will take place on October 2, 2024, which is considered inauspicious in Hinduism. Any auspicious or auspicious work is avoided during the eclipse, and the doors of the temples are also closed. In such a situation, it is important for the devotees of Goddess Maa to know in which Muhurta Kalash or Ghatasthapana can be done in Shardiya Navratri, because Kalash Sthapana has special significance on the first day of Navratri.

Solar eclipse 2024: Time and Sutak period

The last solar eclipse of the year 2024 will take place on October 2. According to Indian time, this eclipse will start at 9:12 pm and end at 3:17 late night. The Sutak period of the solar eclipse will start 12 hours before i.e. from 9:12 am on October 2. Sutak period is considered inauspicious, and no auspicious or auspicious work is done during this time.

However, since it will be night in India at the time of solar eclipse, this eclipse will not be visible here. When the eclipse is not visible, the Sutak period is also not valid. Therefore, it will not have any negative effect on the Kalash establishment of Navratri.
