Is Diwali an auspicious time, astrologically speaking?

[Guest guest]

The question may not be as stupid as it sounds at first glance, and

if it is, you can have a good laugh anyway :-) What I mean to say is

that since the planets are in different positions every year at

Diwali (except the Sun which is in the same "degree-area" (is it

not?)), there is no astrological uniqueness to this obviously

religiously significant event, is there? So astrologically speaking,

can there be auspiciousness associated with the occurrence of events

coinciding with religiously significant times (need not necessarily

be Diwali)?

 

Thanks,
