Bhadra Kaal Dates 2027: Complete List of Inauspicious Timings
What is Bhadra Kaal?
In Vedic astrology, Bhadra is described as the daughter of Surya (Sun God) and the sister of Shani Dev (Saturn). Just like Shani, she possesses a fiery and strict temperament. According to mythology, she was born with the power to obstruct auspicious ceremonies. To balance her energy, Lord Brahma designated her place inside the Vishti Karana (one of the 11 divisions of a lunar day in the Panchang). He declared that anyone performing good deeds during her active hours would face major obstacles, while those performing destructive or defensive acts (like fighting legal cases or initiating surgery) would find success.
🚫 Actions Strictly Banned During Bhadra
- Vivah (Marriage): Leads to constant clashing or early separation.
- Griha Pravesh (Housewarming): Brings structural damage, arguments, or bad energy into the home.
- Roka / Engagement: Causes misunderstandings and delays in marriage.
- Tying Rakhi: Historically, Ravana's sister tied a Rakhi to him during Bhadra, leading to his downfall. Never tie a Rakhi during Bhadra.
