Kharmas 2024: Kharmas is considered inauspicious for conducting auspicious ceremonies which occurs twice a year. It begins in December when the Sun transits into Sagittarius (Dhanu Rashi) and ends with Makar Sankranti. This year, Kharmas starts on December 15, 2024, marking a month-long pause in conducting important ceremonies like weddings, housewarmings, and other auspicious activities.

Why Are Ceremonial Activities Avoided During Kharmas?

The Sun (Surya) is regarded as a visible deity and one of the Panchadev who plays a vital role in auspicious ceremonies. During Kharmas, the Sun is believed to lose its strength as it serves its guru, which also weakens the planet Jupiter (Guru), the key planet for prosperity and success. This astrological imbalance is thought to reduce the effectiveness of auspicious events.

Successful marriages and other ceremonial activities are believed to depend on the favorable positioning of the Sun and Jupiter. Thus, such activities are avoided during Kharmas.

Here’s a list of auspicious dates before Kharmas for those planning ceremonies this year:
