Any Pithru kaarya, Daana, Brahmana Bhojana (with Mudgaanna) given in respectful reverence to one’s Pithrus on the sacred day of Dhanur Vyatheepaatha Yoga during Dhanurmasam is considered 1000 times more meritorious than the one performed during Ardhodhayaadi parva kala.
Merits of Ardhodaya Parvakaala is equivalent to 100 Surya Grahanas - Merits of Surya Grahana Parvakaala is equivalent to one lakh times of an ordinary day. Therefore, merits of Dhanur-Vyatheepaatha Yoga is 100000 X 100 X 1000 = Anantha Punyaphaladaayaka.
On this day Lord Vishnu to be worshiped during Arunodaya Kaala and Arghya to be given to Vishnu Chakra Roopi Vyatheepaata Devatha;
Vyatheepaatha literally means great calamity or prone for sudden mishaps or reversals.
In electional astrology (muhurtha) though Yoga is given secondary importance, some of them, especially Vyatheepaatha; Vydruthi etc. are outright rejected for auspicious events.
Though Yogas like Vyatheepaatha and Vydruthi are not considered good for auspicious events; they are considered for performing sacred ceremonies especially Pithru related.
That’s why both Vyatheepaatha and Vydruthi Yoga days are prescribed for performing Pithru Kaarya under the concept of Pithru Yagna - Shannavathi.
Like Nakshathras; Yogas also have presiding deities (Abhimani Devathas) and Vishwedevathas are presiding (abhimani devatha) deities for Vyatheepaatha Yoga.
