Dear maadevi and group: is there any place on the Devi Mandir Group site, or on the Shree Maa web site that tells one how to determine the dark and bright fornights? Are they standard ~ the same day/time every year? If they change, again, how can one know? Thank anyone who can clarify this for me. ~ LindaLooking for a car that's sporty, fun and fits in your budget? Read reviews on AOL Autos.

Guest guest Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 Thank You!Jai Maa,--- On Thu, 8/14/08, maadevi55 <maadevi55 wrote:maadevi55 <maadevi55[www.ShreeMaa.org] Re: to maadevi and group about dark and bright fortnights Date: Thursday, August 14, 2008, 11:05 PM Namaste Devi Maa, The moon goes from full to dark and dark to full. At this time, approaching the full moon we are in Shukla today being the 13th day of the bright fortnight or Tryodashi. This coming Sunday, the day after the full moon, i believe the dark fortnight will commence. Remember also that the days of the months vary from 28 to 31 days so even if one counts from the 1st day, some knowledge of the moon phases would be needed to know which days the moon overlaps like the 10th day of this bright fortnight for instance, was celebrated on Sunday and Monday 10 and 11 Aug. At least this is my understanding. Hope it helps.
