Is Amavasya an Inauspicious or Purnima is Auspicious ?
Amavasya – Purnima are the most debatable topics of Astrology. These two are known as “Tithi” in Astrology. Tithi’s are basically the distance between Sun & Moon in the form of Degree. 1 tithi = 12 degree distance. Amavasya happens when sun & moon comes together in one Rashi. Whereas Purnima (poornmaashi) happens when Sun & Moon are in-front of each other (180 degree apart). No Moon’s Day or New Moon‘s Day are synonym of Amavasya. Full Moon is the name of Purnima. Full Moon means Collective blessings of Sun & Moon on the person’s life.
Now the Main Question here is :
Why do people think that child born on Amavasya is inauspicious whereas child born on Purnima is auspicious !
Well Amavasya is the darkest night among all the 30/31 nights of a month whereas Purnima is the brightest night. Being so dark, it is often relate with dark energy or the activities which are more like Tamsic (Black Magic / Vashikaran) in nature but this is not the right case. Amavasya is cursed ! is also one a statement of many people. Though it is true to some extent but it doesn’t means it will make you a “Corrupt Person in life“. Purnima on the other hand is the brightest night of the month has been treated as the Sattvic Night or you can say a night which is great for Meditation or Spiritual Activities in a sattvic way. We agree with this statement for Purnima, it is best for many things like spiritual practices but we don’t agree that this condition will make someone “LUCKY” in life.
Good Luck or Bad/Hard Luck both depends upon the individual’s kundli or birth chart. Although day of birth (Birthday) does impact but it can not overwrite the promises given by planetary combinations in the horoscope. So, if you have good combinations of planets then this birth day condition may not harm you much ( to some extent it will for sure which you can channelize with Right Remedies) or vice versa.
To get the best benefit from birth day or to align the energy of birth day. You need to get your Mantra along with 3 Step Remedy as per your kundli/horoscope. Hence if you were born on Amavasya but have very good combinations of planets then you can channelize them for your best results in life.
Now the question here is Why “AMAVASYA” is treated As BAD DAY ?
Well there is one story behind it. Once upon a time Devi Tara , wife of Guru Brihaspati (Jupiter) got fascinated by the looks of Chandra (Moon). Moon is treated as the most handsome deity among all. He has that Casanova factor. Because of this fascination, Tara got eloped with Chandra silently. It was the day of Krishan Paksh Chaturdashi/Chaudas ( 1 tithi behind Amavasya). On the day of Amavasya , they did copulation therefore became a parent of illegitimate child “Mercury“. Because of this copulation on amavasya (not a good deed), this tithi doesn’t remain pious anymore!. This tithi made the Devi Tara Pregnant, so female born on this tithi are potent enough for pregnancy (pre or post marriage). So every parents needs to really take care about this event if they have Amavasya born daughter’s.
