Rakshabandhan 2023: The festival of Rakshabandhan is celebrated on the full moon date of the month of Sawan. This year, Sawan Purnima is on August 30, 2023, but due to the shadow of this Bhadra, there is confusion about the auspicious time to tie Rakhi. This is because there is a belief in Hinduism that if there is a shadow of Bhadra on Shravan Purnima, then Rakhi cannot be tied till Bhadrakal. Rakhi should be tied only after its completion because tying rakhi in the Bhadra period is considered inauspicious. On August 30, there is the shadow of Bhadra throughout the day and there is no auspicious time to tie Rakhi on this day. In such a situation, let us know when is the auspicious time to tie rakhi to your brother…

When is Raksha Bandhan 2023?
According to the Panchang, the full moon date of the month of Sawan is starting from 10.58 am on 30 August. And it will end on August 31 at 07.05 am. But with the beginning of the full moon date on August 30 i.e. Bhadra is starting from 10:58 in the morning, which will remain till 09:01 in the night.

When to tie rakhi to brother?
Although Bhadra is ending at night on 30th August, Raksha Sutra should not be tied at night. That's why on August 31, 2023, Rakhi can be tied before 07:05 in the morning. On this day, starting from 5 in the morning till 7.5 in the morning is an auspicious time.

Know what is Bhadra?
According to mythology, Bhadra was born to destroy demons, but when Bhadra was born, she started making the whole universe her morsel immediately after birth. For this reason, wherever auspicious and auspicious works, yagya and rituals take place during the Bhadra period, disturbances start coming there.

Keep these things in mind while tying Rakhi
On the day of Rakshabandhan, both brothers and sisters take a bath and wear new clothes.
At the time of tying Rakhi in auspicious time, first of all, brother should put a handkerchief on his head.
There is a belief in Hinduism that Rakhi should not be tied with an empty head.
Also, while tying the rakhi, the brother's face should be toward the east or north, and the back should be toward the west or south.
It is not considered auspicious to tie Rakhi facing south.
