Independence day and Janmashtmi celebration

Celebrating 70 years of independence, India has much more to achieve. Know the astrological aspects of Independence day and know the importance of Lord Krishna Janmashtmi (Vaishnava).


On 15th of August, 2017, India will celebrate the 70th anniversary of its independence. In these 70 years of freedom, India has progressed well in the fields of technology, economics, education, warfare, energy, etc. There is still more to achieve as India is still a developing nation. People still do not know what will be the conditions of the country after this independence day. To answer the questions that the masses have been pondering over, Vedic Astrology comes to our rescue. By applying the principles of astrology, we can discover what future lies ahead for the country, what will be the political conditions, if the problem of mass unemployment would be solved​, what will be the relations of the country with China and Pakistan. Let us have a quick look as to what is going to happen by using the birth chart (Kundali) of India.


India got independence on 15 August 1947, at 12 o'clock in midnight. Thus, the free nation of India was born at this moment. According to the given time, the birth chart of India is as follows:

According to this Kundali, India has Taurus Lagna and the shadowy planet Rahu is also posited in the first house. The second house is occupied by the fiery planet Mars. Venus, Mercury, Sun, Moon and Saturn are present in the third house, while Jupiter is posited in sixth house and Ketu in the seventh house. Pisces is the Lagna in the Navamsa birth chart. Both the charts show happiness and prosperity for the nation. From the time of independence, India has faced the major period (Mahadasha) of Saturn, Mercury, Ketu, Venus, and the luminary Sun. The country is having the Mahadasha of the Moon and Rahu from February 2017. According to the birth chart, the Moon is posited in the third house in the Zodiac Sign Cancer, and Rahu is posited in the first house under the Zodiac Sign Taurus. The third house represents courage, bravery, neighbours, changes, communication, aspirations, and mental inclinations. The Lagna house indicates the health, personality, and security of one's own self. The lord of the third house is posited in the third house itself, which represents a positive image at the international level and self confidence of the nation.

Is the economic condition of India going to improve?


India will witness a major turnaround in the field of economy from August 2017 to August 2018. The import and export business of the country will grow multifold, and many multinational companies and foreign companies would improve the prevalent conditions of the country. Things will get less expensive during the year, but the public might still not be convinced with the pricing. Employment would increase, but more unemployed youth would rise on the surface. This would be dealt in the parliament by passing new bills. Progress would be seen in the fields of technology, fashion, cosmetic products, etc.


Tension with China and Pakistan will continue


In the Kundali of India, the Lord of the third house is Moon and it is posited in the third house itself. This foretells that India will be able to stand out at the global level. However, tensed situations with neighbouring countries of China and Pakistan will continue. The nation needs to be careful of these countries and should not let its guard down. India will shine at the international level with its policies and ideas, and would gain importance in international forums.

Is the political condition of India going to change?


A dynamic change can be witnessed in the political condition of the country after August 15, 2017. This will take place due to the position of Rahu in India's birth chart. The public might begin to oppose certain political parties. Also, the ruling party might face some rebellion from the common masses. Communal issues would remain the highlights in the country, which might lead into the polarization of the society on the basis of communities.

Accidents and crimes


Due to the position of the Moon in Cancer and Rahu in Taurus, problems related to food and water might arise. Floods, famine, earthquakes, agricultural damage, scarcity of water, water borne diseases, etc. might hit the nation. Also, there are chances that violence against women might also increase, which is something that needs to be controlled at the earliest.

Now enlighten yourself with the importance of Janmashtmi that is being celebrated today

(Note- The Vaishnava sect is celebrating Janmashtmi on 15 August, while the Smartha sect celebrated the festival on 14 August.)

The birthday of Lord Krishna is celebrated as Janmashtami. Lord Krishna is regarded to be the eighth incarnation of of Lord Vishnu. He was born as the 8th child of Devki and Vasudeva on the eighth day of Bhadrapada during the Krishna Paksha. Therefore, this day is celebrated as Janmashtami.

To get the husband of her dreams, Goddess Parvati observed a fast for 108 years, before Lord Shiva understood her devotion towards him. The tying of the sacred knot took place during the Krishna Paksha of the hindu month, Bhadrapada. This day later came to be known as Kajari Teej, which is deemed auspicious to worship the Goddess and get her choicest blessings!

Raksha Bandhan and Chandra Grahan Today

Aftermath of Chandra Grahan on Raksha Bandhan! Celebrated on the full moon day in the Hindu month of Shrawan or Sawan, Rakhi Purnima is the festival dedicated to the ethereal bond shared between the siblings. What would happen when Lunar Eclipse clashes with the festival of Raksha Bandhan?



A thread tied on the wrist to seek protection from someone whom you trust and love, Rakhi symbolises not just love, but a mutual faith in the other. As per the customs followed in North India, Raksha Bandhan traditionally belongs to the pair of Brother and sister, wherein the sister ties the sacred thread on the brother’s wrist. In return the brother pledges to protect the sister till his last breath. 

Being one of the major festivals of India, Raksha Bandhan attracts the eye of not just Hindus, but people of other religions as well. The festival lays allegiance to the Hindu religion, but its nature and the reason of its existence makes it easier for all to become a part of the zeal.

The above Rakshabandhan Muhurat is for New Delhi, India. Know Raksha Bandhan muhurat in your city: Rakshabandhan Muhurat 2017

This year on the 7th of August 2017, a partial Lunar Eclipse would also be seen. The Sutak period of the Grahan causes a chaos in the Muhurat Timings for Raksha Bandhan. But, according to the Hindu Scriptures, Nirnaya Sindhu and Dharm Sindhu, to celebrate Raksha Bandhan the eclipse period and Sankranti (Sun Transit) period mustn’t be considered.

According to the Verse 2 of Nirnaya Sindhu,

"इदं रक्षाबंधनं नियतकालत्वात् भद्रावर्ज्य ग्रहणदिनेपि कार्यं

होलिकावत्। ग्रहणसंक्रांत्यादौ रक्षानिषेधाभावात् ।"

Inference: Raksha Bandhan must be celebrated excluding the Bhadra time period, just like we do on the day of Holi. The Sutak of the Eclipse only applies to the indeterminable tasks, whereas Raksha Bandhan has a fixed tithi on which it’s celebrated, i.e. on the Shravan Purnima. Therefore, Raksha Bandhan will be celebrated on the 7th of August after 11:08 a.m. 

For those who believe in the Sutak period of the Lunar Eclipse, the muhurat for Raksha Bandhan will be of 2 hours and 45 minutes. The Sutak will take effect at 01:44 p.m. and will end at 12:43 in the night, as the eclipse passes. The time period of 11:07 a.m. to 01:43 p.m. will be considered the best period for the tying of Rakhi. 

Know the Puja Vidhi for Rakshabandhan: Rakshabandhan Pooja Vidhi

How to celebrate Rakhi Poornima


On the auspicious day of Raksha Bandhan, take a bath early in the morning and start prepping for the day. There are numerous traditions associated with the festival of Rakhi, but the gist of all comes to the tying of the silk thread on the brother’s wrist and wishing him the best for his life. The brother takes an oath in response to the trust levied on him by swearing to protect the sister with all his heart and might. 

A little packet which carries Akshat (unbroken rice), yellow mustard seeds, and golden wire is to be tied on the right hand of the brother by the sister, while chanting the following mantra:

ॐ येन बद्धो बली राजा दानवेन्द्रो महाबलः।

तेन त्वामपि बध्नामि रक्षे मा चल मा चल।।

Note: This packet (potli) must be worshipped first before tying it. 

Significance of Raksha Bandhan:


A single thread of silk holds a much larger importance than any gold or riches. Raksha Bandhan symbolises this trust and love. Celebrated with zeal, Rakhi is the embodiment of a sister’s faith and love in her love, and the sense of pride and responsibility for a brother. 

Being a ‘Resham ki dori’ for some, to being the signifier of love for others, Rakhi has changed forms one too many times. 

While earlier, a Rakhi was nothing more than a silk thread or 'Resham Ki Dori', signifying the sweet love between a brother and a sister, now it has evolved a long way. However, this never dulled the charm of this festival or its importance. 

This Raksha Bandhan swear to be each other's support. Empower one another and be the pillar of strength. Form relationships that are deeper than gossiping and hanging out! Be strong enough to support and selfless enough to trust the other person to catch you when you fall. 

We also appeal to our viewers to plant a tree this Rakshabandhan and pledge to make this place a little more wonderful by loving and forgiving!

AstroSage wishes you a fabulous Raksha Bandhan!

Chandra Grahan 2017


On the day of Raksha Bandhan, i.e. 7th of August, 2017 a partial Lunar Eclipse will be observed. This eclipse will take place in the Shravan Nakshatra (Constellation) and Capricorn zodiac sign. The Shravan is the Constellation of the Moon, therefore those with a weak moon in their birth chart will face a hard time in this duration. The Eclipse happening on the Monday of 7th August is called the ‘Chudamani Sangyak’. This type of eclipse is brilliant for charitable deeds, paying homage to the deity, and indulging in spiritual activities.
