✨ Gopashtami 2025 – Honoring the Divine Bond of Cows, Krishna & Nature 🐄

🗓️ Celebrated on the Ashtami Tithi of the Shukla Paksha in the month of Kartik, this vibrant festival pays homage to the sacred cow (Gau Mata) and the young Krishna who took up his responsibility as a cowherd. 

On Gopashtami the Moon is in its waxing phase (Shukla Paksha), amplifying growth, purity and positive karmic momentum. The union of lunar energy with the planetary guardians of nurturance and dharma such as Venus and Jupiter encourages balance between our material tasks and spiritual responsibility. 

By worshipping the cow (symbol of abundance, earth & nourishment) and aligning with Krishna’s Gopal Leela, one invites stability, prosperity and strong ethical grounding — especially beneficial for those with weakened Moon, Venus or Jupiter placements in their horoscope.
