🪐 Astrological Transit Significance
Namaste Beta! 24 August 2026 ko Kolkata mein Bhai Dooj ka parv ati shubh hai. Is samay Surya Dev Simha Rashi mein swagrihi hokar tej pradan kar rahe hain, jo rishton mein garmahat aur sthirta layega. Chandrama ka gochar bhavnatmak lagav badhaega, jabki Shani Dev Kumbh Rashi se drishti dal kar karmon ki shuddhi karenge. Yeh yog bhai-behen ke bandhan ko atoot aur surakshit banata hai. **Upay:** Is din apne bhai ko tilak lagate samay thoda sa 'Gud' (jaggery) khilayein. Surya ke prabhav se yeh aapke rishte mein sadaiv priti aur raksha ka kawach banaye rakhega. Aayushmaan bhava!
