1ST MOON 8TH DAY - 1ST MOON 15TH DAY | SUN FEB 5 TO SUN FEB 12 | Flower bath daily inclusive Sunday. Flower bath is meant for the people who need a turn for a 'better luck, energy, smoothness and harmony in their jobs and businesses' for the coming year. As a rule of thumb, 3 days of consecutive flower baths are to be taken continuously without a break in between, which is then considered as a successful flower bath. However, 1 combined flower bath is quite adequate to do the job. |
