Why Godhuli Bela is auspicious
Godhuli is named for the moment cattle return home at day’s end, raising visible dust. The classical muhurta tradition treats this transitional window as sandhi — a junction between day and night, charged with auspicious energy. In Bengali wedding tradition, “Godhuli Bela” is one of the most commonly-selected muhurtas for the marriage ceremony.
