The Hindu New Year (Vikram Samvat 2082) will commence on March 30, 2025, coinciding with Chaitra Navratri. According to astrologers, this year, named Kalayukt Samvatsar, will be ruled by the Sun, bringing extreme heat, political dominance, and a rise in natural calamities. It is predicted to affect animals, vegetation, and human health with new diseases and an increase in landslides.
Vikram Samvat 2081 Ends, Nav Samvatsar Begins
Astrologer Pt. Diwakar Tripathi Poorvanchali, director of Utthan Jyotish Sansthan, stated that Pingal Samvatsar (2081) will end on March 29 at 4:33 PM. The new Kalayukt Samvatsar (2082) will commence from March 30 due to the Udya Tithi (sunrise-based calculation), aligning with the beginning of the eight-day-long Chaitra Navratri.
How the King and Minister of the Samvatsar Are Determined
The planetary ruler of the year is determined by the weekday of Chaitra Shukla Pratipada. Since the Sun rules Sunday, it will be the King of this Samvatsar. Additionally, the planetary minister is determined by the Mesha Sankranti (Sun’s transition into Aries), which also favors the Sun. As a result, the Sun will hold both the King and Minister positions, signifying a year of political power shifts, heatwaves, and global unrest.
Rare Astrological Alignments in Chaitra Navratri 2025
Vedacharya Braj Mohan Pandey from Swami Narottamanand Giri Ved Vidyalaya, Jhunsi, highlighted that the Samvatsar will begin in Leo Ascendant (Simha Lagna), bringing bold leadership and transformation.
The day will witness a unique planetary alignment with five planets—Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, and Rahu—forming a Panchagrahi Yoga in Pisces (Meena Rashi), amplifying its astrological impact.
The evening will feature two highly auspicious yogas:
Gajakesari Yoga – known for wisdom and success.
Amrit Siddhi Yoga – considered highly beneficial for spiritual growth and prosperity.
