    Karthigai Masam (November to December) is a highly auspicious Tamil month. Fasting and pujas performed in this month is believed to be highly meritorious. Special significance is associated with Gooseberry or Nellikkai (Awala or Amla) and Karthigai Masam. It is believed that hearing stories of Muruga or Kartikeya under the Nellikkai tree will help in attaining good health and prosperity.
    If food is taken under the gooseberry tree it will help in good health. If food is offered to the hungry or poor people or any living being under a gooseberry tree it will help in fulfilling your prayers and desires.
    It is also said that if women of the family eat under the nellikai tree in Karthigai Masam it will help in the prosperity of the entire family.
    Significance of Gooseberry or Nellikkai in Karthigai Masam is mentioned in the Padma Purana and Skanda Purana. The popular belief is that during the Karthigai month gods and sages reside on the Nellikkai Tree. Therefore worshipping the tree during the period can help in destroying sins and in fulfilling wishes.


    is there any scientific reason for not eating non-vegiterians in karthigai masam ?

    There is a scientific reason behind fasting and not eating complicated food like Non veg in this month..

    Since this is the starting of Winter, body will loose its ability to digest properly and it will face difficulties with the cold atmosphere.. So to make the tummy comfortable, it is suggested not to take complex foods and do fasting by taking fruits and liquids..

    In Karthika masam all Mondays are very auspicious days, Trayodasi is 100 times more auspicious, pournami is 1000 time better, Sukla Padyami is 10,000 times better and ekadasi, Dwadasi are how much better its uncountable..
    That is on the coming saturday and sunday.. Do puja for Lord Vishnu on these days.. May God Bless you all..
