Raksha Bandhan 2023: The Time to Tie the Rakhi

Purnima Tithi will commence on 30 August at 10:45 AM, and Bhadra will begin at 11:00 AM and end at 9:03 PM, almost simultaneously. Therefore, during Bhadra people will not celebrate Rakhi, as it is considered unlucky to tie Rakhi during Bhadra Kaal.

Purnima Tithi will conclude on August 31 at 7:05 a.m., so if it is a Surya-Udaye Purnima, it will be deemed auspicious, and people can celebrate Rakhi on August 31. Therefore, people can celebrate Raksha Bandhan on August 30 after 9:00 PM or August 31 before 7:05 AM.
