It's time to celebrate the love between siblings as India gears up to celebrate Raksha Bandhan. On this day, sisters tie a sacred thread, or rakhi, around their brother's wrist, and the latter promises to protect and cherish their sisters. This year, Raksha Bandhan or Rakhi festival is being celebrated on both August 30 and 31. Pandit Jagannath Guruji points out that as per the Drik Panchang, Raksha Bandhan falls on Wednesday, August 30. However, due to the inauspicious Bhadra Kaal period, celebrating it on August 31 is also considered. "On August 30, the unfavourable Bhadra Poonch lasts from 5:30 pm to 6:31 pm, followed by the Bhadra Mukha from 6:31 pm to 8:11 pm. Bhadra Kaal ends at 9:01 pm, marking the suitable time for Raksha Bandhan rituals and tying rakhis among siblings," says Jagannath Guruji. On this special occasion, share warm messages with your siblings. Let's check out some heartfelt messages that can be shared.
