Janmashtami celebrates the appearances of Sri Krishna, Vishnu's eighth incarnation. According to Vedic Astrology, Sri Krishna was born at the sacred moment of midnight, under the Rohini Nakshatra and in the Taurus zodiac, on Ashtami Tithi (the eighth day) in Krishna Paksha (the dark fortnight) in Bhadrapada.
Legend has it that this unique cosmic event characterizes divine blessings and inner awakening and is hence aligned to spiritual practice and meditation.
The spiritual concentration and focus during these hours invokes divine peace, power, and protects one's aura. Similarly, at Janmashtami, one can charge crystal bracelets and gemstones with the power of positive energy. This helps to attract divine presence and provide spiritual wealth and enhance spirituality in your life.
Whether your goal is a stable secure life or if you want peace and balance in your life, or if you wish to cultivate your spirituality, then all you need to do is attune your vibration to the cosmic frequency of Janmashtami and the changes will happen at the core of your true reality.
