The beginning of the monsoon season is an exciting change for all the rain-lovers and people belonging to the profession of agriculture. Karka Sankranti's day and moment bring this breeze of change along with the Sun transition event. Although the certain time frame of Shubh Muhurat or auspicious time duration is considered to be very beneficial to perform the righteous activities of the charity, yet people avoid starting new jobs or important works during Sankramanam.
Many regional Hindu calendar systems and Muhurat finding rules bring New Year with Mesha Sankranti. If not the same day, then the day followed by Mesha Sankraman is celebrated as the first day of the Solar cycle year. However, the Shubh Muhurat for Sankranti-related Daan-Punya activities is considered as per its own rules through the Hindu solar calendar system. Mesha Sankranti is associated with Sankramanam, Vishu Kani, Pana Sankranti, Puthandu, Vishu, Pohela Boishakh (Naba Barsha), Vaisakh, and Bihu in various regions of India.
Meena Sankranti is one of the twelve sun-transition events which mark the starting of a new month, indeed the last month of the year. Calculated as per the solar calendar system, Meena Sankranti is also observed throughout India by Hindus as an auspicious opportunity of donating food, clothes, and especially the land (in this particular Sankranti).
