As far as my point of view is concerned, the Panchang is not at all auspicious. Moreover, four major planets are in retrograde motion apart from Rahu and Ketu.
Jupiter (R) – Capricorn 00°59′ in Uttarashada (Lord is Sun)
Saturn (R) – Capricorn 06°32′ in Uttarashada (Lord is Sun)
Mercury (R) – Gemini 20°18′ in Punarvasu (Lord is Jup)
Venus (R) – Taurus 11°31′ in Rohini (Lord is Moon)
Rahu (R) – Gemini 04°59′ in Mrigashira (Lord is Mars)
Ketu (R) – Sagittarius 04°59′ in Moola (Lord is Ket)
On top of this, there is a ‘Kalsarpa Yoga’ do exist in the zodiac on the axis of Gemini (04°59′) to Sagittarius (04°59′).
As per mundane astrology, in aspects of an earthquake, if four or more planets are in retrograde motion there is a bigger possibility of a devastating earthquake within 14 days to 4 months of a solar eclipse. Now, at the same time Uranus, one of the major planets responsible for earthquakes is in Bharani Nakshatra (Lord of Venus). Mars is aspecting Rahu and Sun in Gemini with its 4th Drishti indicating natural disaster.
All the above possible junctures are indicating a major earthquake in the Himalayan range from Punjab to the Indo-Myanmar border.
We all pray for the safety and security of our citizens.
Acharya Barahamihir in his treaties ‘Surya Siddhanta’ has advised enchanting the following mantra during the entire course of the solar eclipse to remain safe in all respect as many times as possible.
“Om Bhaskarayo Vidmahe Mahatejayo Dhimahi Tanno Surjya Prachodayat”
