Avoid doing these things on Margashirsha Purnima
- People should not shave their hair or beard on Margashirsha Purnima. Mother Lakshmi gets angry by doing this. Besides, the position of Moon in the horoscope is also weak.
- People should also not wear black clothes on the auspicious day of Purnima. According to astrologer Anish Vyas, black color is considered a symbol of negative energy.
