Although the solar eclipse on April 8 will not be visible in India, the Sutak and Moksha periods associated with it will apply, affecting everyone equally. Scheduled from 9:12 p.m. to 1:25 a.m., with a nine-hour notice period in advance, many restrictions apply at this time. Renowned astrologer Pandit Pradeep Acharya has advised not to consume food or water during the eclipse, as it can weaken the digestive system and cause illness. Keeping Tulsi leaves in all the food items during the eclipse avoids inauspicious events. It is also considered beneficial to sprinkle Gangajal all over the house after the eclipse. According to traditional beliefs, eating or drinking during the eclipse period can interfere with digestion. Do not start any new work during this period. Cutting nails can be the ideal method, just like sleeping.
