What Exactly is Pitra Dosh?
For someone new to the world of horoscopes, understanding pitra dosh can be difficult. Here is a simple explanation of what does it means and how does it affect our lives.
According to Astrology, Shani, Rahu, and Ketu are demons and bring bad luck to people’s life. If a horoscope shows signs of even one of them or a combination of all the three, it can have serious repercussions in our lives. Usually, Pitra Dosh comes into effect when people don’t follow proper rituals after someone’s death like improper cremation, an unfulfillment of wishes of the deceased member, etc. As per Indian Mythology, there is a certain set of rituals that are required by the family members to perform immediately after the death and every year during the period of Shradh. If someone fails to perform these rituals then they might start suffering from serious effects like premature deaths or disturbance in family, blocked life growth, financial troubles, etc and experience dissatisfaction in every aspect of life. It is believed that the soul keeps wandering in the lives of the family members and pressurize family members to fulfill their wishes. Until Pitra Dosh is resolved, such people would continue to suffer harsh effects.
Pitra Dosh is a strong curse, if not resolved timely, it would keep haunting current members of the family and generations to come.
