Sharad Purnima 2023: Expert Shares Auspicious Time For Lakshmi Puja

On Sharad Purnima, Shri Krishna along with Radha and gopis performed the Maharas.

As per Drik Panchang, the Purnima tithi will begin on October 28 at 04:17 AM and will end on October 29 at 01:53 AM.

The lunar eclipse will take place on October 28. This year, the lunar eclipse will coincide with the auspicious occasion of Sharad Purnima. The full moon night that occurs during the Ashwin month is called Sharad Purnima. This year, Sharad Purnima, also called Raas Purnima, will be celebrated on October 28. As per the beliefs, Shri Krishna along with Radha and other gopis performed the Maharas, the dance of divine love on this day. Devotees observe fast on this occasion and take baths in holy rivers.

During Sharad Purnima, especially in the eastern belt of India, this day is also known as Kojagari Purnima. On this day, Goddess Lakshmi is worshipped. In various other parts of the country, Lord Satyanarayan is worshipped and devotees listen to the story. As per beliefs, this brings happiness, peace and prosperity to the house. On the full moon night, Goddess Lakshmi and the Moon are worshipped, however, this year, a lunar eclipse will occur at night. So how will the puja rituals take place? Astrologer Chakrapani Bhatt revealed the auspicious time for Lakshmi Puja.

As per Drik Panchang, the Purnima tithi will begin on October 28 at 04:17 AM and will end on October 29 at 01:53 AM. On the day of Sharad Purnima, the lunar eclipse will occur at 01:06 AM and is scheduled to end on October 29 at 02:22 AM. Its Sutak period will start from 02:52 pm on October 28.

Hence, neither Lakshmi Puja will be done nor Arghya will be offered to the Moon during this time. As per Chakrapani Bhatt, devotees should perform Lakshmi Puja and worship the Moon on Sharad Purnima before the Sutak period or after the lunar eclipse concludes.

According to the expert, it would be best to worship the Moon and the Goddess after the eclipse. Apart from this, on Sharad Purnima, Goddess Lakshmi is believed to visit the Earth at night. Hence, it is best if the Puja is done on Sharad Purnima but after the lunar eclipse concludes. This will also help devotees to make astrological remedies.
