Raksha Bandhan 2024:

According to the Hindu calendar, the festival of Raksha Bandhan is celebrated on the full moon day (Purnima) of the Shukla Paksha in the month of Shravan. Raksha Bandhan is a symbol of the love between brothers and sisters. On this day, sisters tie a Rakhi (a sacred thread) on their brother’s wrist and take a vow of protection from them. This year, Raksha Bandhan will be celebrated on August 19, 2024.

This year, the full moon day in the month of Sawan (Shravan) will begin at 3:04 AM on August 19 and end at 11:55 PM on the same day. However, Raksha Bandhan will fall under the shadow of Bhadra. According to astrologers, it is advised to avoid performing any auspicious activities during Bhadra, so tying the Rakhi during this period is also discouraged. Additionally, astrologers suggest that Raksha Bandhan will be celebrated during four auspicious Yogas (conjunctions) this year.

Four Auspicious Muhurats (Timings) on Raksha Bandhan:

In addition to auspicious Yogas, there will be four Abhijit Muhurats (auspicious periods) on Raksha Bandhan. Tying the Rakhi during these periods is considered very fortunate. The Vijay Muhurat will be from 2:35 PM to 3:27 PM, followed by the Godhuli Muhurat from 6:56 PM to 7:18 PM.

Additionally, the Sayahna Sandhya Muhurat will be from 6:56 PM to 8:02 PM, and the Amrit Kaal will be from 8:24 PM to 9:50 PM.

Bhadra Period on Raksha Bandhan 2024 (Shubh Muhurat & Bhadra Timings):

According to astrologers, Bhadra will begin at 2:21 AM on August 19. The Bhadra Poonch (tail of Bhadra) will be from 9:51 AM to 10:53 AM, followed by the Bhadra Mukha (head of Bhadra) from 10:53 AM to 12:37 PM. The Bhadra period will end at 1:30 PM. Astrologically, Bhadra is considered a very inauspicious time, and no auspicious activities should be performed during this period. Therefore, Rakhi can be tied after 1:21 PM on August 19.

Auspicious Timings to Tie Rakhi:

There will be two auspicious Muhurats for tying Rakhi on Raksha Bandhan. The first auspicious period will be from 1:46 PM to 4:19 PM, giving you a total of 2 hours and 33 minutes to tie the Rakhi.

Second Auspicious Muhurat: Additionally, you can tie the Rakhi during the Pradosh Kaal in the evening. On this day, Pradosh Kaal will be from 6:56 PM to 9:07 PM.

Four Auspicious Yogas on Raksha Bandhan:

This year, Raksha Bandhan will witness not one but four auspicious Yogas. On this day, the conjunction of Sarvartha Siddhi Yoga, Shobhan Yoga, Ravi Yoga, and Shravan Nakshatra will occur. Sarvartha Siddhi Yoga will be from 5:53 AM to 8:10 AM. Additionally, Shobhan Yoga will start at 4:28 AM on August 19 and end at 12:47 AM on August 20. However, due to the presence of Bhadra, Rakhi cannot be tied during these auspicious Yogas.

Raksha Bandhan Puja Vidhi (Rituals):

Raksha Bandhan is a festival that symbolizes the affection between brothers and sisters. On this day, sisters tie a Raksha Sutra (protective thread) on their brother’s wrist and take a vow of protection from them. The ritual begins with the sister applying a tilak on her brother’s forehead with Roli, followed by the application of rice grains (Akshat). Then, she lights a lamp and performs an Aarti for her brother. Finally, she feeds him sweets and prays for his happiness and prosperity. In return, the brother often gives his sister a gift.
