The scriptures warn against doing certain things after sunset or during sunset. If these things are done then the person will face health problems and money problems. What things should we not do after sunset?
According to Hinduism and astrology, there are certain things that should not be done after sunset. Doing them is said to cause diseases, sorrow and suffering in the house and at the same time angers Goddess Lakshmi.
Here are 10 things you shouldn’t do after sunset.
Bathing after sunset
Many people take two baths after sunrise and after sunset. If you are bathing after sunset, do not apply sandalwood to your forehead. Bathing at night can increase chills.
Drinking milk
Milk should not be drunk at night as the effect of milk is cold. If the scientific reason behind it is that it affects our health, it is believed in the Shastras that money will be a problem.
Cutting of nails, hair and beard
According to belief, it is said that hair should not be cut, nails should not be cut and beard should not be removed at night i.e. after sunset. Doing these things will not only have a negative effect but also increase the debt.
Washing and drying clothes
It is not good to dry clothes after sunset. Due to this, negative energy enters your place. It is also said that this makes the person sick. It is believed to increase the number of bacteria on the clothes.
Consumption of yoghurt or rice
Eating yoghurt after sunset is also prohibited. Don’t even donate yoghurt. Curd is associated with the planet Venus and Venus is considered the bestower of wealth and fortune. Donating curd at sunset or after sunset brings happiness and prosperity. Also, do not eat rice after sunset. According to Jainism, food should not be consumed after sunset as it aggravates diseases. This creates many more disadvantages.
Last rites
According to the Garuda Purana, if the funeral rites are performed after sunset, the deceased will suffer in the afterlife. In the next birth, defects may occur in his organs.
Keeping food open
Food or water should not be kept open after sunset. Always keep them covered. According to belief, keeping it exposed increases its negative qualities.
Sweeping and mopping
According to the belief, after sunset, one should not use a broom or clean the house. Sweeping after sunset is believed to cause a loss of money.
Touching plants, and trees, giving water
It is considered wrong to touch trees, pluck their leaves or water them after sunset. According to belief, these sleep after sunset. Do not touch the Tulsi plant even after sunset.
Physical intercourse is prohibited
Sleeping immediately after sunset or during sunset is considered forbidden. Also having physical contact with a woman and sleeping with her during this time is also prohibited. It will adversely affect your health. This leads to loss of money and health. In the scriptures, the time of sunset is fixed for worship.
