Kharmas December 2025: Kharmas occurs twice a year, lasting for a full month. This year's second Kharmas will begin on December 16, 2025, and end on January 14, 2026. From a religious perspective, this month-long period is considered inauspicious because the Sun slows down during this period. For this reason, events like weddings, engagements, or naming ceremonies are put on hold during Kharmas. Let's explore how performing Bhoomi Pujan, purchasing land, or entering a new home during Kharmas is considered auspicious.

You can look for an auspicious time for housewarming after Kharmas.
Why is house warming not done during Kharmas?
Slowing down of the Sun's speed: There is a religious belief that during Kharmas, donkeys are attached to the chariot of Sun God, due to which his speed slows down and this time is considered inauspicious.
Decreased auspiciousness: According to astrology, when the Sun enters Jupiter's zodiac sign, Jupiter's auspicious energy weakens. Consequently, auspicious deeds performed during Kharmas do not yield their full results.
