Shravan Month Risks For Sagittarius
Published on in Hindu Lunar Month Astrology

Why the Month of Shravan May Be Challenging for Sagittarius Natives
The month of Shravan (July–August) is celebrated as the holiest time for devotees of Lord Shiva. However, in Vedic astrology, it also marks a sensitive period for certain zodiac signs. One such sign is Sagittarius (Dhanu Rashi). Despite its natural affinity for truth, wisdom, and expansion, this fire sign may experience internal and external challenges during Shravan.
Let’s explore how specific lunar dates, nakshatras (constellations), and planetary combinations can impact Sagittarius natives—and what remedial steps can help harmonise this period.
Why Sagittarius Natives Should Be Cautious in Shravan
In the Shravan month, various planetary transits affect mental stability, decision-making, health, and emotional balance for Sagittarius natives. This is especially true on certain lunar dates and when the Moon transits specific signs or nakshatras.
Inauspicious Tithis (Lunar Dates)
Certain tithis (lunar days) during Shravan are traditionally considered inauspicious for Sagittarians:
-
Tritiya (3rd lunar day): May cause confusion in thought and impulsive financial decisions.
-
Ashtami (8th lunar day): Can lead to emotional tension, health disturbances, and misunderstandings.
-
Trayodashi (13th lunar day): Especially risky if it coincides with Pradosh Kaal, linked to poor judgement or family discord.
When the Moon is in Bharani Nakshatra
The Moon’s transit through Bharani Nakshatra, ruled by Venus and associated with transformation and Yama (Lord of Dharma), can trigger psychological and physical strain. For Sagittarius natives, this may show up as:
-
Restlessness, anxiety, and insomnia
-
Sudden expenses or losses
-
Accidents or emotionally draining events
When the Moon is in Virgo (Kanya Rashi)
Virgo is the 10th sign from Sagittarius and ruled by Mercury—a natural enemy of Jupiter. When the Moon passes through Virgo:
-
Sagittarians may feel indecisive or overwhelmed with responsibilities
-
Legal matters, travel, or higher education can face delays
-
Digestive- or nervous system-related issues may arise
Harmful Planetary Combinations (Yogas and Karanas)
Vajra Yoga
This planetary combination is considered negative for starting anything new. For Sagittarians, Vajra Yoga days can result in:
-
Emotional volatility
-
Sudden conflicts or miscommunication
-
Unstable professional environments
Taitila Karana
Karanas are half-day time segments in Vedic astrology. The Taitila Karana may trigger:
-
Misjudgments or rash actions
-
Difficulty focusing
-
Accidents or strained relationships
What Can Sagittarius Natives Do During Shravan?
Even when certain energies are unfavourable, timely spiritual alignment and discipline can neutralise negative effects. Here are recommended remedies:
✅ Daily Shiva Worship
Offer water, milk, honey, and bael leaves to a Shiva Linga. Chant "Om Namah Shivaya" at least 108 times daily to purify your aura.
✅ On Bharani Nakshatra Days
Observe light fasting. Chant the Mahamrityunjaya Mantra or recite the Durga Argala Stotram to overcome fear and mental tension.
✅ During Moon Transit in Virgo
Focus on a sattvic (pure) diet and avoid overanalysing. Recite the Budh Beej Mantra:
to calm Mercury’s influence.
✅ On Vajra Yoga or Taitila Karana Days
Avoid initiating new ventures. Instead, observe silence for a few hours and practice introspection or japa (repetitive mantra chanting). Chanting Ganapati Atharvashirsha or Sankat Nashan Ganesh Stotram is highly recommended.
Conclusion
Though Shravan is a sacred time to connect with Lord Shiva, Sagittarius natives should treat this month with humility, discipline, and spiritual awareness. By understanding astrological cautions and using Vedic remedies, one can turn challenges into deep inner transformation.
