AAJ KA PANCHANG, SUNDAY, JANUARY 22, 2023: The Panchang for this Sunday will mark the Pratipada Tithi and Dwitiya Tithi of the Shukla Paksha in the Hindu calendar month of Magha. According to Drik Panchang, Hindus will be observing two religious festivals on this day, Magha Navratri and Ishti. The majority of Shardiya Navratri customs and rituals are also observed during Magha Gupta Navratri. Ghatasthapana Muhurta is most commonly observed during Shardiya Navratri, but it is also required during Magha Gupta Navratri.
Ghatasthapana is an important ritual during Navratri. It marks the start of the nine-day Durga Puja. Our scriptures have clearly defined rules and guidelines for performing Ghatasthapana during a specific time period at the start of Navratri. Ghatasthapana is an invocation of Goddess Shakti, and doing it at the wrong time, as our scriptures warn, may bring the Goddess Shakti’s wrath. Ghatasthapana is forbidden during Amavasya and at night.
