Shiva Ardha Pradakshina

Eka Chandaya Ravehe Sapta Tirstra Karya Vinayake |
Hareschatarsthrah kartabyah Shivasya Ardha Pradakshinaha ||

A devotee should perform 1 pradakshina for Maa Chandi, 3 for Vinayaka, 7 for surya, 4 for vishnu, and 1 pradakshina for Shiva
The way suggested for shiva pradakshina is Half Parikrama. It is performed in crescent shape. It is called as Soma Sutra Prdakshina or Ardha Pradakshina. This is strictly followed by people across the world.
The abhisheka jala which exits from the soma somasutra is not crossed by the humans. The sacred water and pancha amrutas flow out from the soma sutra. It is a mixture of water, milk, curd, coconut water, ghee, ashes (bhasma) etc.
It is said that these waters are not crossed as the energies from the same disturbs the vaayus in the body. There is an imbalance in the virya production in the males. If you observe the energies which flow, are extremely divine and represent the Shakti Tatva of Bhramand. I
It is therefore clearly advised not to cross the Soma Sutra for more blissful benefits. There are many more stories which say people who crossed that energy passage experienced many losses and had imbalances. It is not clearly known to us in current stages but it affects for sure
People should avoid full parikrama esp in the special temples with swayambhu lingas, while performing around the Garbha Griha / Moola Sthana I.e 1st prangana. If the circumblation is performed outside in the 2nd Prangana then the person can completely do the circumblation.
यानि कानि च पापानि जन्मान्तरकृतानि च ।
तानि सर्वाणि नश्यन्ति प्रदक्षिणपदे पदे ॥
पदे पदे या परिपूजकेभ्यः सद्योऽश्वमेधादिफल ददाति ।
तां सर्वपापक्षयहेतुभूतां प्रदक्षिणां ते परितः करोमि ॥

Pitra Dosh– In contrast to the misconception of it being the curse from forefathers, Pitra Dosh is actually a karmic debt of the ancestors. It is reflected in the Kundli in a form of malefic planetary combinations and is to be paid by the person having Pitra dosha in his Kundli.
To put it simply, Pitra dosh is formed in a person’s horoscope, when his/her ancestors have committed some sin or mistake. So, in exchange for that, the native is held accountable to pay for the wrongdoings of their forefather’s past deeds by going through various punishments.
Presence of Pitra Dosha in one’s horoscope may bring about some inevitable and unexpected hardships in the native’s life. It causes severe ups and downs in one’s lifespan. The native tends to suffer from a lack of mental decisiveness and money.

Where did Alakshmi come from :
