Holashtak 2026 marks the eight days before Holi, considered inauspicious in astrology when planetary positions are believed intense, so auspicious ceremonies and major new beginnings are usually avoided during this period traditionally.
The belief in auspicious and inauspicious periods has long existed in astrology, and Holashtak is linked to this tradition. The eight days before Holi are known as Holashtak, during which auspicious activities like marriage, housewarming, and tonsure ceremonies are usually avoided due to unfavorable planetary positions.
When will Holashtak 2026 begin?
According to the Panchang, Holashtak will begin on Tuesday, February 24, and continue until Tuesday, March 3. It is believed that starting शुभ कार्य during this period may not yield desired results. Devotional practices and prayers are therefore recommended during these eight days.
