According to the Hindu calendar, the Sun changes its zodiac sign every month and the day when the Sun enters from one zodiac sign to another is called Sankranti. In this sequence, this time the Sun will move out of Aries and enter Taurus, which will be called Vrishabha Sankranti.
Vrishabha Sankranti is considered special from religious and astrological point of view. This time indicates the Sun’s entry into a new zodiac sign and is also called a period of energy change. This day is considered extremely auspicious for bathing, charity and worship.
According to astrologers, the change in Sun’s zodiac sign affects all the 12 zodiac signs. At the time of Vrishabha Sankranti, some zodiac signs may get positive results, while some zodiac signs are advised to be careful in their actions.
During this period, people especially worship Sun God and pray for happiness and prosperity by offering water. According to religious beliefs, charity and virtuous work done on this day gives manifold results.
Changes related to agriculture and weather are also seen symbolically during Vrishabha Sankranti. This time is also considered to signal the beginning of a new weather cycle. According to the Panchang, this transit of the Sun is important from both astronomical and religious point of view. It is associated with stability, patience and new beginnings in life.
