Delhi Gauri Panchang — Friday, 5 March 2027

Krishna Dwadashi is also presided over by Vishnu, representing completion, sustenance, and divine blessings. This tithi is considered highly auspicious for concluding vows, performing ancestral rites, and breaking fasts observed on Ekadashi. It signifies fulfillment and purification. A traditional observance is Parihar Dwadashi, where devotees break their Ekadashi fast at the prescribed time, offering prayers and food to Vishnu, often with a focus on ancestral well-being.

Krishna Dwadashi, also dedicated to Lord Vishnu, is observed for breaking the Ekadashi fast (Parana) at an auspicious time. Devotees worship Lord Vishnu and perform acts of charity. It is auspicious for concluding important tasks and seeking blessings for ongoing spiritual endeavors. One must avoid eating before the designated Parana time to fully reap the benefits of the Ekadashi fast. Refrain from consuming non-vegetarian food, alcohol, or tamasic foods. The mantra 'Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya' should be chanted. Dana includes offering food, clothes, or money to Brahmins and the needy, particularly after breaking the Ekadashi fast, for spiritual merit.

Friday is governed by Shukra (Venus), symbolizing love, beauty, and material comforts. Its character is artistic, charming, and diplomatic, influencing relationships and luxury. This day is auspicious for artistic pursuits, romantic endeavors, purchasing luxury items, and social gatherings. It is generally favorable for activities that bring joy and harmony. Devotees often worship Goddess Lakshmi or observe the Santoshi Ma Vrat, seeking peace, prosperity, and fulfillment of desires. Offering white flowers or sweets and wearing white clothes are common practices to appease Venus.
