Why Is Raksha Bandhan 2025 So Special?

• Rare Planetary Alignment This year, Raksha Bandhan falls under a powerful combination of Shravan Purnima, Saturn’s karmic influence, and Jupiter’s protective grace. Astrologers say this alignment hasn’t occurred on Rakhi in over 95 years.
• Bhadra Kaal Ends Early The inauspicious Bhadra period ends before sunrise on August 9, giving devotees a full day of spiritually clean time to perform rituals.
• Auspicious Muhurat The ideal time to tie Rakhi is between 5:39 AM and 1:24 PM on Saturday, August 9. Performing rituals during this window is believed to amplify blessings and karmic protection.
• Mars & Jupiter Influence With Mars ruling the year, astrologers recommend avoiding red rakhis (which may trigger aggression) and choosing yellow rakhis, governed by Jupiter, to invoke peace, wisdom, and divine protection.
