New Year is widely celebrated on January 1 annually, following the Gregorian calendar. However, in Hindu tradition, the Hindu New Year starts in the month of Chaitra, which aligns approximately with mid-March to mid-April in the Gregorian calendar. According to Sanatan Dharma, the Hindu New Year commences with the onset of the first Navratri of the year.
Astrologer Artha Mishra predicts that this year, the Hindu New Year will align with the Gregorian calendar on April 9. According to the Hindu calendar, it begins on the Pratipada of Shukla Paksha in the month of Chaitra. According to the Brahma Purana, creation occurred on the Pratipada day of Shukla Paksha in Chaitra month, marking the beginning of the Hindu New Year, thus it’s celebrated on this day.
Artha Mishra suggests that during Treta Yuga, when Lord Rama embarked on his battle against Ravana, he sought the blessings of Mata Shakti for victory. He commenced his worship on the Pratipada of Krishna Paksha in the month of Chaitra and continued for 9 days. Hence, each year, the Hindu New Year is celebrated on the first day of Navratri, marking this significant occasion.
According to Artha Mishra, the Hindu New Year for this year will commence right after the disappearance of the solar eclipse, which is not considered auspicious in the scriptures. This could pose challenges for people, as there will be a partial Kaal Sarp Yog, with intermittent relief due to the influence of the Moon, although the Moon’s presence may also create Kemdrum Yog at times.
This year may be marked by struggles, especially if Mars takes a dominant role while Saturn acts as a minister, potentially leading to harsh decisions and unforeseen events globally and in individuals’ lives.
Throughout history, it’s been noted that kings and ministers often reside under the same roof. This year, Mars, representing the king, and Saturn, symbolising the minister, will align in Saturn’s domain, forming a conjunction in Saturn’s house.
