The Ujjain Simhastha 2016 will be falling in Guru Chandal Yog. This is something which has raised the anxiety of the higher administrations & lot of visitors are also taking it in to their considerations before vsiting simhastha mahakumbh.
What is GURU Chandal Yog?
Guru Chandal Yoga is considered as an inauspicious Yog. Astrologically, when Jupiter (Guru) is in conjunction with Rahu, or he is posited with Gulika, or Jupiter is influenced by Rahu or Ketu, we call it Guru Chandal Yog. It should be noted that Jupiter must be weak or debilitated, in this case.
Speculations about Simhasth Mahakumbh 2016
This Yog is considered to be inauspicious, the effect of this yog might come in the form of an Epidemic, increased rate of accidents and can cause death of some prominent political personality. But considering the fact that spirituality & mythological believes may sometimes contradict each other; so we believe & request everyone that we should not panic with such believes and instead should take part with extreme faith in omni presence of god.
