October 16 marks an important day for devotees across India as it brings the auspicious occasion of Kojagara Puja (Lakshmi Puja) which coincides with Sharad Purnima. However, this day also observes Shukla Chaturdashi, which falls under the Ashubh Muhurat, which is considered irrelevant for many important activities.
According to Drik Panchang, Chaturdashi Tithi ends at 8:40 PM, giving way to Purnima Tithi, which lasts until 4:55 PM the next day. The auspicious Uttara Bhadrapada Nakshatra graces the day till 7:18 PM, followed by the equally auspicious Revati Nakshatra. Moon resides in Meena Rashi, while Sun resides in Kanya Rashi.
Kojagara Puja Nishita Timing: 11:42 PM on October 16 to 12:32 AM on October 17.
