Mumbai: In Vedic astrology, there are certain times considered unlucky due to negative celestial influences, making them unsuitable for starting new projects or making important decisions. These include:
Rahu Kaal: About 90 minutes, influenced by the shadow planet Rahu, known for creating illusions, temptations, disruptions, and unexpected challenges.
Gulika Kaal: A shorter time influenced by the mysterious planet Gulika, which is known for causing delays, frustrations, and obstacles.
Yamaganda Kaal: This period is believed to lead to unproductive efforts and complications in various tasks.
Because of these negative influences, people who follow traditional Indian astrology often avoid doing important things during these times to prevent bad outcomes.
