Tamil Month Aadi Friday ends on August 15
Usually July 15th to august 15th is called the month “Aadi”. It’s the 4th month in the tamil calendar. In some regions newly married couple are kept separated in this period as well. The reason for this is in early days it was considered that if a woman gets pregnant in Aadi month, she will deliver the baby in march or april, which are the hottest months. The karthikai Veyil will take place in this period. pregnant woman will suffer more in the hot weather and the newborn will also suffer in the climate. The pregnant will also data-face cold during the critical month of her pregnancy (December + January).
In this period also a lot of religious festivals takes place, Aadi Chevvai, Aadi Velli, Aadi Karthigai, Aadi Amavasai, Aadi 18 Perukku, Andal Pooram and Varalakshmi Puja. So when all this festivals takes place, the pregnant woman will not be able to join these festivals as well, which is another reason why the husband and wife are separated.
Its not only a wedding that cannot take place in Aadi, but it’s also not considered good to shift to a new house or even buy new clothes. I don’t know how many are actually aware of that, at least I haven’t heard it before Hmmmmm…… we live in a scientific world where we know better than what they knew back then. Even though we live all around the world, and have none of the issues mentioned above, we will keep the tradition.
