Krishna Paksha

Fourteenth lunar day - powerful and intense, sacred to Lord Shiva. Shukla Chaturdashi is generally favorable for Shiva worship.

Excellent for deep spiritual practices, meditation, and tantric rituals. Good for overcoming inner darkness. Marriage and joyful material celebrations avoided, especially in Krishna Paksha. The energy is intense and transformative.
