Chaitra Navratri Day 2: Auspicious Yogas align with Vijay Muhurat, note Rahukaal timings

New Delhi (The Uttam Hindu): On the second day of Chaitra Navratri, devotees will worship Goddess Brahmacharini, the second form of Maa Durga. Worshipping her is believed to bless devotees with knowledge, discipline, penance and spiritual strength. Offering white clothes, sandalwood, flowers and white sweets is considered शुभ on this day.

Rare combination of auspicious yogas

This year, the second day holds special significance due to the formation of Sarvartha Siddhi Yoga along with Amrit Siddhi Yoga. The Amrit Siddhi Yoga will remain effective from 6:25 AM till 2:27 AM (next day), making it highly favorable for starting new tasks and performing rituals.

Additionally, Vijay Muhurat will occur from 2:30 PM to 3:18 PM, which is considered highly auspicious for new beginnings, worship and mantra chanting.
