Risky Dates:
Never wear gemstones without proper astrological consultation. Wrong gemstones can worsen problems instead of solving them. Consult an expert before wearing any planetary gemstone.
First, try to change the date if possible. If completely unavoidable, perform pre-wedding pujas like Ganesh puja, Navagraha puja, and get a detailed muhurat analysis to find the best time within that day. Wear protective gemstones and yantras.
Partially yes, partially no. Dates like Amavasya, Saturdays for certain people remain consistent. However, planetary transits change yearly, affecting which specific dates become more or less fortunate. Always check current year's planetary positions.
To some extent, yes! A proper muhurat (auspicious time) selected by expert astrologer can minimize negative effects of an otherwise challenging date. The muhurat creates a protective time window with beneficial planetary positions.
For major life events like marriage, start checking 3-6 months in advance. For business launches, 1-2 months ahead. For routine important work, 1-2 weeks is sufficient. Emergency situations - do best possible remedies.
Don't panic! Many people unknowingly act on challenging dates and still succeed. Perform post-event remedies, stay positive, and work harder. Faith and effort can overcome timing issues. Consider it a learning for future planning.
