Calculated coordinates: 18.5204° N, 73.8567° E | Timezone: Asia/Kolkata
🪐 Astrological Transit Significance
Namaste Beta! Kartik Purnima on 12th August 2026 is an extremely auspicious Dev Diwali. Astrologically, the Moon will be full in Krittika Nakshatra, receiving the stabilizing Drishti of Saturn, while the Sun shines powerfully in Leo. This divine alignment amplifies spiritual energy and purifies negative karmas, especially in a cultural hub like Pune. To harness this energy and protect your home from malefic influences, light a ghee lamp filled with black sesame seeds near your entrance at sunset. Chant the Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra 108 times. Bhagwan Shiva and Maa Lakshmi will bless your family with boundless peace, health, and prosperity. Kalyanastu!
