Choosing an auspicious wedding date is vital because it leads to the first night, called shanti muhurtham, when the couple will have intimate relations.
The auspicious date for the first night is calculated using the couple’s date and time of birth following the Indian almanac.
In ancient times, fire sacrifice and mantra rituals were performed to enable the couple to pray to God in true devotion so that they would be blessed with a healthy child. Usually, the husband would pray fervently that a child may be conceived. He repeats the sacred mantras during the nuptial ceremony and it is believed that the new child is conceived amidst the recitation of the mantras. And good impressions are impressed in the brain-cells of the embryo.
For a Hindu endowed with intellect and understanding, the sexual union is not solely for enjoyment. The husband uses the divine creativity and vital energy for the formation of a human body.
Although such ceremonies are rare now, favourable dates are still observed by elders to ensure that their children do not violate the rules of health and state of mind.
Shanthi muhurtham is the consummation of the marriage fixed for an auspicious time at night, for a happy, ever-lasting married life blessed with understanding and care.
Two souls unite in a sacred act to bring forth progeny. After the child is conceived, an astrologer is usually consulted to determine the date and time that is auspicious for it to be born. This date is usually around the date of natural delivery. In the case of a caesarean delivery, the mother has to be operated upon on the date suggested by the astrologer.
