Many a times, a question arises in our mind that why we need to honor our forefathers during pitru paksha.
Pitris or ancestors have a significant relation with our life success and destiny as the trikona houses give fruits depending upon our relation with pitris.

Trikonas or 5th & 9th houses are the most important in the birth chart as they show past & future births. In Nadi Astrology,it is believed that malefic influences on these houses can actually make you suffer in this lifetime due to delayed success & roadblocks in your path.

Roughly more than 50 percent of people who wake up for an astrological consultation end up knowing that unhappy pitris are result for blockages in their life. Therefore, we highly recommend that you should give donations in the name of your forefathers on this day

irrespective of your religion and place. You can always offer food and other essentials to needy people around you. Buying clothes for the poor households is also a good remedy. Ketu is the planet who rules over our pitris. The COVID-19 pandemic engulfed the world when

Ketu was transiting the nakshatra of Mula. This shows that the collective consciousness of past keepers of this planet was largely unhappy with the present generation. Covid is not just a pandemic rather it is a lesson to mankind from their forefathers to preserve the

ethical and moral ways of survival. It’s a punishment for degrading the natural environment and other living beings for the selfish motives of humans. As this collective consciousness is happy, the whole world has to suffer from its sins. Therefore, honoring ancestors

also includes embracing truthfulness and empathy for all our creatures on earth. So, on this Sarva pitru Amavasya, take a pledge to be a better guardian of this beautiful planet. Do offer food and clothes to the needy. #Amavasya
