Practical Insight
The 'Rikta' Remedy. If you are born on a Rikta Tithi, you may feel a chronic sense of 'emptiness' or lack of support. The remedy is to fill the void with Spirit. Worship Ganesha (4th), Durga (9th), or Shiva (14th) to turn the 'Hollow' into the 'Hallowed'.
Modern Translation
Chaturthi (4th): Ganesh Chaturthi. Good for removing obstacles, but not for starting the journey itself. Use it to clear the path. Navami (9th): Ruled by Durga. Good for debate, fighting enemies, and physical exertion. Chaturdashi (14th): The day before the New/Full Moon. Highly volatile. Good for fierce tantric practices or cleaning the house.
