Nautapa has its roots in both mythology as well as science. Scientifically, it is the time when the sun is at its scorching best and is considered the hottest time of the summer. Astrology says that when the king of the planets, Surya dev or Sun God enters the Rohini Nakshatra in the first month, the earth’s temperature increases considerably. The heat is intense for the next 9 days, which is why the occurrence is termed Nautapa. Science says that during these nine days, the sun’s rays fall directly on the earth. This causes greater evaporation from the earth’s water bodies, leading to clouds which ensure a good monsoon.
This year, Nautapa starts on May 25 and will last till June 2. While it is generally believed that this period brings suffering to all living beings on earth, Nautapa is also an auspicious time to make some donations, which can bring peace and happiness to a person’s life. Bhopal resident astrologer and Vastu consultant Pandit Hitendra Kumar Sharma explained the same in detail.
Donate water
Giving water to the thirsty during Nautapa is believed to get rid of one’s sins and lead one to Moksha or salvation. According to astrology, this also keeps the planets calm and we do not have to face their ire. If someone’s horoscope has an inauspicious effect on the planet then they should donate water during Nautapa.
Donate Curd
Donating curd to the needy during Nautapa also removes one’s sins and keeps one disease-free and healthy. Curd is considered sacred and is also used often in pujas. Donating curd pleases Goddess Lakshmi and increases one’s wealth and prosperity.
Donating Food
According to astrology, donating food during Nautapa is regarded as highly auspicious. It is believed to strengthen the planets. Additionally, this act pleases Goddess Annapurna, leading to favourable outcomes for the person.
Donating Clothes
Donating clothes during Nautapa is considered beneficial. It brings auspicious results and resolves problems. Additionally, it brings happiness into the person’s life.
