Kaal Sarp Dosh Puja Muhurat 2026: Auspicious Timings, Nakshatras & Tithis

Kaal Sarp Dosh puja creates powerful spiritual momentum. Devotees experience mental clarity after rituals complete. Family tensions ease naturally. Workplace decisions flow smoother. Inner strength emerges quietly. The ceremony aligns planetary energies through precise Vedic timing.

Trimbakeshwar's Godavari riverside amplifies effects. Three daily muhurats offer flexibility. Nakshatra-tithi combinations determine potency. Families choose dates matching personal schedules and astrological alignments.

Why Specific Nakshatras & Tithis Work Best

Amavasya tithis naturally favor Rahu-Ketu energies. Moon's absence creates ideal serpent deity focus. Nag Panchami honors nag devta directly. Shravan Somvars channel Shiva's transformative grace. Certain nakshatras enhance each:

Most Auspicious Nakshatras:

• Ashlesha (serpent energy peak)

• Magha (ancestor blessings)

• Mula (root clearing)

• Ardra (transformation support)

• Vishakha (spiritual progress)

Supportive Tithis:

• Amavasya (12 annually)

• Shashthi, Ashtami

• Ekadashi (mental focus)

• Pratipada (fresh beginnings)
