🪐 Astrological Transit Significance
Namaste Beta! 12 August 2026 ko Bhai Dooj par grahon ki sthiti adbhut hai. Is samay Surya apne swa-rashi Simha mein hain, jo bhai-behen ke rishte mein tejas aur naitikta bharte hain. Chandrama (Moon) Kumbh rashi mein vichar kar rahe hain, jo rishton mein emotional stability aur long-term bandhan lata hai. Shani (Saturn) ki drishti ek anushasan aur suraksha ka kavach banati hai. Kolkata mein is shubh muhurat par, behen apne bhai ko tilak lagate samay ek 'Ganesh-Durga' ka chota rup rakhein. **Remedy:** Ek chota sa Lal Dhaga (mouli) bhai ki kalai par bandhein aur "Om Suryaya Namah" ka 11 baar jaap karein. Subh-labh hoga!
