New Year has begun and everyone’s attention is on auspicious ceremonies. Makar Sankranti falls on January 15th and on the same day, Malmas will end. After this, auspicious ceremonies will begin. The sound of wedding bands will start in the city from January 16th. With the start of housewarming, engagement, mundan (head shaving), janeu (sacred thread ceremony), ear piercing, and construction of houses, one can also start new businesses.
When will the wedding bands play?
This year, there are 38 auspicious muhurats (auspicious timings) for weddings. However, in May and June, the wedding bands will not play. There are no auspicious muhurats for weddings in May and June. The most muhurats are in February. There are 11 muhurats this month. This is why there will be a lot of celebration with wedding bands and wedding processions. Malmas started in December, which put a halt to auspicious activities. Even the market saw a decrease in shopping. After the end of Malmas, there will be a boom in the market. Wedding shopping will increase, bringing back the hustle and bustle in the market. Astrologer Pandit G.M. Hinge says that this year there are many auspicious muhurats for weddings. After January 15th, auspicious activities can also begin.

नया साल शुरू हो चुका है और सभी लोग मकर संक्रांति और मलमास के अंत की समीक्षा कर रहे हैं। इसके बाद मांगलिक कार्यों की शुरुआत होगी और शहर में शहनाईयों की धुन गूंजने लगेगी। इस वर्ष विवाह के 38 मुहूर्त हैं, जिनमें फरवरी महीने में 11 मुहूर्त हैं। मलमास के खत्म होते ही शादियों की खरीदारी बढ़ेगी और बाजार में रौनक लौटेगी। ज्योतिषाचार्यों के अनुसार, धनु राशि में सूर्य के संक्रमण के बाद खरमास समाप्त हो जाएगा और शहनाई बजनी शुरू होगी। इसके अलावा, 2024 में विवाह के शुभ मुहूर्त दिनों की सूची भी दी गई है।
