Venus Combust: Weddings, auspicious events on hold until Jan 31, 2026

• Shukra (Venus) is currently in an 'asta' (set) state, which weakens its auspicious influence for important events.
• Auspicious ceremonies like marriages, housewarmings, and other significant rituals are prohibited during this period.
• The 'asta' state of Shukra is expected to continue until January 31, 2026.
• In astrology, Shukra is considered the significator of material comforts, wealth, and prosperity.
• To mitigate negative effects, chanting Shukra's Bija Mantra, donating white items, and maintaining a disciplined lifestyle are advised.

Why It Matters: Shukra Ashta (Venus setting) until Jan 31, 2026, delays auspicious events like weddings.
