According to the Hindu calendar, the month of Margashirsha is considered highly auspicious for charity and good deeds. Furthermore, the Amavasya Tithi is considered very sacred and special. There are 12 Amavasya Tithis in the year. The Amavasya Tithi falling in the month of Margashirsha is also known as Agahan Amavasya. On this day, worship of Lord Vishnu, the protector of the universe, is practiced. Tarpan and Pind Daan are also performed for the ancestors on this day. This time, there is confusion among people regarding the Tithi. Let's learn the correct Tithi and auspicious time from Ujjain's Acharya Anand Bhardwaj.

According to the Vedic calendar, this Tithi will begin at 9:43 am on Wednesday, November 19th. This Tithi will end at 12:16 pm on Thursday, November 20th. Astrological rules consider the Udayatithi to be the most important Tithi. Amavasya Tithi will be observed at sunrise on November 20th. Therefore, Margashirsha Amavasya will be celebrated on November 20th.

This auspicious time for bathing is the best.
According to religious beliefs, the Brahma Muhurta is considered the most auspicious time for bathing on the day of Margashirsha Amavasya. Taking a dip in a holy river during the Brahma Muhurta on this day brings special merit. Therefore, bathing in a holy river during the Brahma Muhurta on this day is recommended. After bathing, one should perform charitable acts.

Don't do these things even by mistake.
According to astrology, one should not cut hair or nails on the new moon day, even by mistake. Doing so could anger one's ancestors and cause an ancestral curse. Furthermore, washing hair on the new moon day is also considered taboo. It is believed that washing hair on this day can cause various problems.

Do this to please the ancestors.
According to religious beliefs, after bathing on the day of Margashirsha Amavasya, one should offer water to the Sun God. On this auspicious day, bathing and donating during the Brahma Muhurta in the morning liberates the devotee from all suffering and sins. On the new moon day, rituals like Shraddha, Tarpan, and Pind Daan are performed to attain salvation for the ancestors. It is believed that this provides relief from ancestral sins and ensures continued blessings from the ancestors.
