Jyeshtha Kalashtami 2025 Muhurat
On the day of Kalashtami, it is considered auspicious to worship Kaal Bhairav during the night. In 2025, the most favourable time for worship will be from 11:57 PM to 12:38 AM.
Rahu-Ketu Remedies On Kalashtami
If Rahu and Ketu are causing financial problems in your life, then on Kalashtami, offer a roti smeared with mustard oil to a black dog. While doing this, chant the mantra:
“Om Hreem Batukaya Apaduddharanaya Kuru Kuru Batukaya Hreem Om.”
It is believed that this helps reduce the negative effects of Rahu and Ketu. If Rahu is negative in your horoscope, it can lead to depression or mental stress. To get relief, place a black thread at Lord Bhairav’s feet on Kalashtami while chanting the same mantra. After a while, pick up the thread and tie it on your right leg’s ankle. This is believed to bring peace and protection from Rahu’s effects.
