What Is Agni Panchak? Avoid These 3 Fire-Related Activities Starting Tomorrow

Agni Panchak 2025: In astrology, there are 27 Nakshatras. The sequence begins with Ashwini and ends with Revati. The Moon travels through all of these Nakshatras, and when it passes through the last five—Dhanishta, Shatabhisha, Purva Bhadrapada, Uttara Bhadrapada, and Revati—Panchak occurs.

The Panchak period is considered inauspicious. It is believed that any important work done during Panchak can bring sorrow, trouble, and obstacles in life. Therefore, no auspicious or ceremonial tasks should be carried out during these five days. Even purchasing certain items is avoided, as it is thought to invite misfortune.

When Panchak begins on a Tuesday, it is called Agni Panchak. This period is believed to carry a higher risk related to fire and accidents.
