Hi! I hope you are doing well 💫

My intials: B.P. (she/her)

DOB: 15 March 2003

3:20 Pm IST, Gurgaon, Haryana, India

I would like to know about my career.

Thank you so much 🫶

Hi🤗 For your reading I am going to use vedic astrology.

WRITING CAREER + PROFESSIONAL LIFE

For the first question if writing is a good career options for you, YES.

I found this tecnique where 10th house sign from the 1st lord in D1 or D9 chart indicates someone's career, in your case falls in aries in D1 chart and gemini in D9 chart.

Career Fields:

D1 Aries so anything related to leadership, sports and fitness/athletics, politics, boss, entrepreneur, healthcare, adventure, engineering, sales, marketing, firefighter, military, law enforcement, research and development, creative arts, etc

D9 Gemini so anything related to education, technology, public relations, communication, media, public speaker, marketing, advertising, travel and tourism, arts, creativity, writer, research, entrepreneur, admnistration, entrepreneur, journalism, consulting, etc.

Furthermore in D1 chart you have 10th lord mars in sagittarius mula in 6th house indicating that your career can be connected to writing and publishing due to mula sagittarius (education/teaching/research/law/philosophy/healing/others); can involve service, routine, organization, discipline and solving conflicts/helping others (6th house), perhaps you heal your readers with your writing, your books can inspire other people, transform their lives (mula); you might experience a lot of obstacles and competition in your career with other writers or issues with your editor for example ( mars 6th house) and go through intense transformative periods (mula) though don't worry you are very determined and hardworking, you will be able to overcome these obstacles and grow even stronger.

If we want to see about financial gains and stability we would need to look at your 2nd lord in D1 you have sun in pisces in 9th house this indicates that you might earn more money in a foreign land (working abroad or with foreigners) or higher education is really important like studying creative writing or liberal arts or philosophy in college can help you succeed and gain recognition in your writing career (pisces is connected to creativity). Since it's aspecting your mars 10th lord it's important that your career allows you to shine individually and work as a leader (you might have issues with your boss/authority figures/teacher so working independently or leading a team is a better option). You must also be careful with high expectations vs reality and idealism vs practicality, how to work creatively in a disciplined way, etc.

Additionally 2nd lord sun is aspecting scorpio ketu in 5th house by 9th aspect indicating possible obstacles related to creativity, hobbies, education, might make you detached from past beliefs related to these themes focusing on new, inovative or unconventional ways to earn money through learning or higher education for example; you will notice that you earn more money after a transformative (spiritual/intense) period in your life.

2nd lord sun is actually aspecting 6th lord cancer jupiter in 1st house by 5th house which confirms financial growth through service oriented careers, healing, higher education, travelling and expanding the way you see the world (beliefs/philosophies/spirituality), etc.

Since 6th lord jupiter is in cancer conjunct moon, it's essential that your work environment allows you freedom (flexible hours for example), to express yourself, your emotions/feelings; a comfortable/nurturing, positive, open environment (family or mother/female figure could be relevant -> support you) can make you grow; tapping into your emotions (intuition/creativity) to write your books; future spouse could also be working with you or helping you (jupiter is significator of spouse); etc.

Jupiter is aspecting your capricorn venus in 7th house by 7th aspect indicating that your future spouse and relationships/partnerships have a strong influence on your emotional stability at work; you might have a business with them or contract relationships; they might contribute to your sucess; harmony and balance between career and relationships is key👌

Not just that jupiter is aspecting your aquarius mercury(3rd lord ->skills) in 8th house indicating that you might write about deep/unconventional/futuristic/fantasy/occult topics, influencing other people ->healing them; experience transformation in your environment; working with investors, sharing resources with your spouse or business partners; work in secret maybe you could be an anonymous author; etc.

Lastly jupiter is aspecting taurus saturn + rahu in 11th house by 11th aspect that shows teamwork, working online, media, social connections, professional networking (large companies), innovation are relevant. With saturn energy this can cause delays/obstacles in making connections, with your coworkers, gaining financial stability and fame/success, etc. (you might have to put a lot of effort and be patient; after you saturn return you will see that all your hardwork paid off👀)

The rahu energy can cause chaos, confusion, fluctuations related to your financial gains, professional networks and work environment.

In D10 chart you have gemini 10th house another huge confirmation that your career is related to communication, writing, knowledge,etc.

10th lord mercury is in chitra libra in 2nd house conjunct chitra ketu and swati saturn(6th lord) meaning that you will earn money through creative, innovative, online, media, unconventional, independent, flexible, service oriented (routine), healing, disciplined/practical career fields during a transformative period in your life. It's confirming everything I've said above. Money and sucess in your career can be achieved later in life.

Moreover 10th lord is aspecting 2nd lord aries aswhini venus conjunct Mars and rahu in 8th house by 7th aspect reaffirming transformation, healing, spirituality themes and that money and sucess might come after a transformative period or attaining personal growth.

JOB TIMING

Regarding when you will get a job:

D1 CHART

In D1 chart you have taurus jupiter transiting your 11th house saturn (6th lord) and rahu so there is already a good sign for this year till may 2025 (jupiter brings abundance and luck in professional networking, large companies, fame, etc).

Rahu/ketu pisces/virgo transit is affecting your 2nd lord sun in pisces 9th house bringing you new unconventional ways of earning money, maybe you will travel, work with foreigners, study creative arts; you might also be more recognized/confident in your work environment. ( Be careful with overindulgence, ego, chaos, high expectations vs practicality, illusion vs reality).

NOTE1: Sun is your Darakaraka só you might be meeting your future spouse this year👀👀👀 or if you are already in a relationship 💍.

Aquarius saturn transit is influencing your mercury in 8th house, so you might have been experiencing some challenges/delays perhaps writing blocks, lack of inspiration, issues with your business partners or investors, anxiety/depression, fears of expressing yourself, transformative period, etc.

D7 CHART

In D7 chart you have aquarius saturn transit in your 10th house with mars this can indicate challenges/delays in your career, power struggles with authority figures, business partners, achieving your goals, etc ( Be patient and don't give up🙏)

Taurus jupiter transit is influencing your 10th lord saturn with moon in 1st house so this actually eases the saturn transit in 10th house bringing optimism, abundance and success in your career. So even though you might have delays/obstacles you will be able to overcome it with motivation, positivity, wisdom, discipline and emotional support (perhaps your family/mother figure can help you).

Rahu/ketu pisces/virgo transit is affecting your 11th/5th house (ketu transit is conjunct virgo sun in 5th house) so you might be rethinking about romantic relationships and friendships, personal goals vs social endeavours, new social networks and aspirations/dreams, individuality vs union/teamwork, engaging in spiritual/unconventional activities/hobbies -> inspiration in your writing, changing yourself (transformation on personal expression), etc.

NOTE2: When jupiter, saturn, rahu/ketu are transiting in the same or opposite sign of sun, saturn, rahu/ketu in D7 chart it indicates a major event might happen during this time of your life like meeting your future spouse or a partner, engagement, pregnancy, career,success,fame, breakup, divorce, moving out, etc.(This technique is by Camila Regina from tiktok).

DASHAS/TIME PERIODS/TRANSITS

You are currently running venus-venus-mars dasha (10th lord mars in D1 chart) till 4 september this year. I am leaning towards pisces eclipse in september (affecting your 2nd lord sun in 9th house that is aspecting your 10th lord) you might get a job offer abroad or work with foreigners (foreign company), etc.

Next year 2025 you also have good chances since rahu will be in aquarius after 19 may transiting your mercury in 8th house D1 chart (you will express yourself more, be inspired, etc), your 10th house in D7 chart bringing opportunities and sucess in your career, your 6th house in D10 chart changing your work environment, daily routine, health, etc; jupiter will be transiting in gemini in may aspecting your 10th lord sagittarius mars in D1 bringing growth and opportunities related to communication/writing fields and affecting your 10th house in D10 chart bringing abundance in your career; in october you will have your jupiter return in cancer affecting your 6th lord in D1 chart, 11th house (jupiter) in your D10 chart (fame/recognition/luck), among other factors; etc.

If we want to be more specific/accurate there is a technique I am trying out by KRS Kapiel that when the saturn is trine/conjunct transiting your natal moon/saturn you might get a job. You have natal (D1 chart) taurus saturn and cancer moon. So when moon is transiting virgo, taurus and capricorn or saturn transiting in scorpio, cancer, pisces, virgo, capricorn and taurus.

Moon is transiting capricorn 17 august till 19 august (full moon👀 and moon will aspecting your cancer jupiter 6th lord and 7th house venus -> work/health/contract/love/relationships/business).

Saturn is a slower planet so the next transit will be in pisces next year 2025 in 20 march.

You can check this link to see the moon + saturn transits: https://horoscopes.astro-seek.com/calculate-sidereal-vedic-ephemeris-august-2024/?&aya=lahiri&&presnost=1&

NOTE3: If you notice your sagittarius mars 10th lord and your 2nd lord pisces are both ruled by jupiter (sign ruled) which is in cancer -> cancer/capricorn transits are fundamental.🫰

NOTE4: Accordingly to D1/D7/D10 charts (this technique is from Camila Regina tiktok) you might have sucess or fame when saturn, rahu/ketu are transiting the signs of aries/libra/taurus/scorpio.

Okay I think I am done😅 I hope you like this reading if you do leave feedback on my page🙏 And let me know if it resonates👌it helps improving my readings🫶💜

As someone who went there last summer just same time around may-june (prefect time to be) it's pretty awesome even best if you by chance gets to see some left over autumn it's such looker

As for the heat it's pretty alot like I'm from Brazil so yk shouldn't be a problem for me that much but I swear that moment I step out like heat is pretty bareble If you all cover up and suncream rolled and not so much direct contact with sun BUT IT'S THE HUMIDITY which just big no but after 3-5 pm in the afternoon you are good to go for outing and gets to explore even better places at evening time

Or you really wanna explore early market you can go out from 7-10 am best time to find some old tradition places and for closed space idts it's makes much difference almost all the good spots are pretty much open and welcoming

people there in Japan are very hostile and friendly especially old peeps.. But just be careful at coward places like metro station or parks and all because of other tourist who are actually so rude while taking picture and they don't even look for other's privacy or have any kind of manners just keep an eye there

ALSO DO VISIT AS MANY RAMEN NOODLE SHOPS YOU CAN I'M TELLING BESIDES SOME REAL DELICIOUS NOODLES YOU WILL ALSO GATHER LOTS OF GOOD MEMORIES

Yea I hope you enjoy lot and it's one my top 5 favourite places to visit again

AH i've heard spring (i guess that's what you meant?? but i heard autumn in japan is amazing, too, and very red!!) is a perfect time to go there. it's just so BLEH bc in my job, it's not easy to get time off; summer is far more doable, but i'm so badddd with the heat 😭 if nothing else seems possible, i might just risk it and endure the humidity and plan indoor activities for the worst part of the day. as someone who's been to india during the worst time of the year, i just. humidity is just. 🥴 a no no. also guessing you meant hospitable hehe bc lots of people do say that everybody's very nice over there, so that's a relief. AND BEST BELIEVE I'M GONNA HIT UP EVERY RAMEN PLACE POSSIBLE LMAO i wanna go to a naruto ichiraku themed restaurant so bad :') </3 thank you so so much, love!!!

#YAY appreciate all advice #i really hope it works out!#notes for rid 🌹#anon

To the Ends of the Earth (4)

Pairing: Lara Croft & Marcus Pike (Tomb Raider AU)

Rating: Mature

warnings: mentions of guns, fighting. Pretty safe.

Summary: After obtaining a seemingly normal piece of art from a flea market, Marcus Pike enlists the help of an old friend in tracking down its origins. They both get more than they bargain for.

A/N: Next chapter after this will be fresh! This is the last of the reuploads. credits to the gif maker.

Lara concentrates on her breathing, exhaling softly as the plane rattles more. Taking the cargo plane wasn’t ideal but it was the better choice of getting into the country undetected for the time being. The last time she came to India was when she was younger, accompanying her father to an academic conference. She pretended to be an important council woman of sorts, eagerly following her fathers every move and taking heed of everything around her. The tears threaten to fall but Lara just takes another breath, attempting to find her center.

“I don’t see how anyone sleeps on these things.” Marcus grumbles, rubbing at his lower back. “Promise we get to sleep on actual beds tonight.”

“You have my word.” Lara smirks, eyes still closed.

“I miss anything?” Marcus questions, plopping down next to Lara, careful to avoid knocking into her.

“Not really. I got in touch with my contact and she’s agreed to meet us at the hangar once we land. She has scouts on the ground but so far, it’s been quiet.”

Marcus hums. “Too quiet.”

“Exactly.”

“No word on Nanko’s lover?”

Lara exhales. “She passed away about five years ago. There were no reports of Nanko fathering any children so it’s another dead end, so to speak.”

“That guy in Germany, how well do you trust him? Can’t help but to think he might have some other plans up his, uh, sleeve.”

Lara finally cracks one eye open, cutting it at her friend. “Ezra doesn’t concern me in the slightest. He’s harmless.”

Marcus nods, trusting Lara’s words. She was the extrovert out of the both of them and had a good sense on how to read people. If she said that Ezra was harmless, then that was it. He takes a second to admire her in her serenity, frown lines gone and any sign of stress impossible to trace. He doesn’t know how she does it and often wondered if she ever got tired.

A red light flashes, accompanied by an alarm, causing Lara to sigh quietly. The small bubble she wrapped herself in at the moment was now broken and the Lara that Marucs knew best was out in full force.

“What’s going on?” Marcus yells over the sound, heart rate speeding up.

“We’re getting close.” Lara announces, rummaging through a box a few feet away from her. She pulls out a parachute, gearing herself up to exit the plane.

Marcus’s eyes widened. “You’re jumping?!”

Lara shrugs nonchalantly. “You aren’t?”

“What happened to staying below the radar?”

“It’s a bit more fun to do it this way, don’t you think?” Lara smiles with her teeth, checking to make sure that her parachute was fully functioning.

Marcus rolls his eyes and doubles down in his seat. “Don’t break anything.”

The red light shuts off as the green light flashes on and one of the plane passengers slides the door open for her. She takes a look back at Marcus and winks. “Party pooper.”

Marcus flips Lara off as she jumps and the door gets shut behind her.

Deepti shields the sun from her face, a smirk tugging at her lips when Lara comes into view. She takes a step back, allowing Lara to land without getting caught up in her parachute.

“It's a good day for a jump, isn’t it?” Deepti asks, embracing Lara.

“It always is. How have you been?”

Deepti guides Lara through the hangar, a few of Deepti’s men clearing the runway so that the cargo plane could land safely. “Things have been a bit interesting since we’ve last spoken.”

“Is that so?”

Lara untangles herself from the parachute gauging Deepti’s expressions.

“Yes, the house of Nanko’s supposed lover was discovered. I had my people comb it over but it seems that someone got to it before we did.”

Lara sighs, Baloshov no doubt. “Did you happen to find anything at all?”

Deepti nods. Reaching for her back pocket, Lara gets the barrel of a gun shoved in her face. She smiles faintly. Slowly reaching her hands up, Lara never breaks eye contact with Deepti as her men strip Lara of her weapons.

The plane soon lands and Marcus is also met with hostility as he exits. Lara can see the panicked look on his face but she shakes her head, silently assuring Marcus that they were ok.

Deepti ushers the pair into a truck which sets off for the city. The ride was quick and bumpy, Mumbai traffic bursting with energy. They arrive at a warehouse, nestled in the more quiet parts of town.

Lara gets out of the truck first, Marcus close on her heels. He walks beside her, talking under his breath. “Which way should I go?”

Lara eyes their companions. Out of the five men, only two were armed. She nods to her left. Marcus clenches his fist, taking another step forward-

He suddenly shifts to the left, slamming his fist into the face of the guard next to Lara. She instantly eliminates the man to her right, shifting on her feet lightly as she works to fight off one of the armed guards. Marcus manages to knock his opponent out and helps Lara finish off hers. Deepti takes out the last guard and they all stop to take a breath.

“You still got it.” Lara comments. Deepti nods, holding a hand over her chest.

“It’s been a while.”

“These all belong to Balashov?” Lara questions, checking over her gun.

“No, they used to be mine. Turns out Balashov sent out a message. High price for the missing treasure and an even higher price for your head. Money talks.”

“How much money, exactly?” Marcus asks.

“Half a billion.”

Marcus inhales sharply. “Fucking hell. I might kill you for half a billion.”

Lara chuckles as they gather back into the truck. “In your dreams.”

Deepti takes them back to her home base for the night, providing them safety from the many foes combing the streets looking for Lara. Once word got out about the men found at the warehouse, it was important to be on high alert.

Lara was off taking a shower while Deepti looked over the information Marcus was giving her.

“How long have you known her?” Deepti attempts a conversation while compiling sketches of the epitaph Marcus secured.

“All my life, just about. You?”

“Eh, teenagers. She came here from London to do a study abroad program.”

Marcus smiles at that. “Were you her host family?”

“No, I tried to pickpocket her.” Deepti snorts. “We’ve been friends ever since.”

“All this stuff pertaining to black magic, do you believe in it?” Marcus frowns, lowering his voice.

“I believe that there are things beyond our comprehension that exist and if Balashov is working this hard to obtain such an item, there has to be some truth in this rumor.” Deepti exhales as she finishes, now centering her attention to the map of Mumbai she has open on the table.

Flickering her eyes back and forth between the two, her eyes enlarge as she notices something. “Marcus?”

He hums. “Yeah?”

“This inscription here, can you read it?” Deepti points to a spot near the bottom of the epitaph.

Marcus leans in closer to get a better look, mumbling to himself. “It looks like a bunch of letters but I’m not sure how to unscramble them.”

“That’s because it’s backwards!” Deepti grabs the sketch, running to a mirror that hangs in her foyer. “Look.”

“Oh wow!” Marcus begins to read the words aloud. “You shine always, brighter than the morning star, take a look at yourself, my jaan. I was always mesmerized by your moves.”

“Life.” Deepti whispers.

“What do you think it all means?” Marcus racks his brain but his Hindi was just as bad as his German.

“Light, moves…I think Nanko’s lover worked in the red light district here.” Marcus’s brain goes blank but Deepti keeps going. “Kamathipura is a neighborhood that was established back in the 1700s and is widely known for its sex tourism. The place is filled with brothels and bars, many women rushed there to find work after India gained its independence from the british.”

Marcus nods, trying to follow along. “So you think the other part is hidden in a brothel?”

“I’m not sure. I’ll make some calls to see if anyone knows anything.” Deepti sighs. “You should get some rest, we’ll have to be prepared for anything tomorrow.”

Marcus is thankful that Lara didn’t go back on her word when it came to beds, it was doing wonders for his back. Deepti only had one spare room so that meant sharing a bed with Lara and even though he swore he’d be ok with sleeping on the floor, Lara wasn’t having it.

“You’re getting old, Marcus.” Lara smirks, doing a little stretch before crawling into bed. She lays in the opposite direction, back to Marcus and his feet. Luckily they agreed to wear socks to bed.

A hush falls over the old friends. Marcus can’t fight sleep any longer but he does his best as he addresses Lara.

“You sleeping?”

She says nothing, he knows she’s listening.

“I hope that when this ends, you’ll find the peace you’ve been searching for. You deserve that, you know. She would, too. Both of your parents.”

The bed groans as Macus flips onto his side, instantly slipping into a deep slumber. Lara brushes a stray tear away from her face and forces herself to do the same.

Fair & Lovely review

I was born in India and lived there until I was 5 before immigrating to the United States. As a child, I would go back home every couple of years and without fail, Fair & Lovely commercials were the most ubiquitous. You would see billboards across every major street and you would see TV ads with magically lightening skin. My aunts and uncles lived in India and would often criticize me for staying out in the sun too long and allowing my skin to darken. The desire for lighter skin was ingrained into societal expectations across all levels. Moviestars (in South Indian movie where the average person is typically darker) were almost always lighter skinned.

Social identity and the desire to fit into the mold of 'fairness' was a key element of the relationship with Fair and Lovely. Using Fair and Lovely was a way to signal to others that you cared about being fair and that you agreed with the idea that being fair was superior to having darker skin. Fair and Lovely marketing's reinforced this idea and it created a downward spiral from there.

Customer's social identity often allows them to associate themselves with particular ideals. For example, Patagonia markets itself to those who aspire to be 'outdoorsy and environmentally-conscious' and its users often buy into that ideal. While Patagonia as a company was built on that foundation - you can imagine a situation where it adopted to meet the expectations of its customers.

Dark is beautiful!!

I was very excited to read this case because colorism is a topic I know too well. My family is Indian, and growing up there was constant chatter around how fair so-and-so's new wife is or isn't, or the warnings about spending all day in the sun with my white friends, etc. It made me terrified of becoming dark, to the point that I would lug an umbrella to the beach every time, and excessively wear sunscreen, and avoid swimming in the ocean or pool too much (even though I loved to!) to prevent getting more tan. I remember seeing all of the ads for Fair and Lovely when I'd visit India, and found it funny how back home the creams would advertise making you more tan rather than more fair. The difference in beauty standards between India and the US is very interesting - what is considered beautiful in India (very pale skin) is not the same as what might be considered beautiful in the US, where my white friends hate when they look "pale". It is interesting because the origin of colorism in India is colonialism and the desire to look more like the "superior" white folks, however white people themselves don't want to look too white.

It would be very difficult to undo generations of internalized racism in India, but there is a lot that can be changed today to at least start the process. More celebrities need to do what Das is doing and resist photoshopping / airbrushing / skin lightening creams, and allow the world to see their true skin. Darker men and women should have more representation in Bollywood movies and advertisements. Skin-lightening cream ads should be very careful about how they advertise - and be banned from including anything that associates darkness with undesirability or any sort of inferiority. Once the embracing of darker skin starts at the pop culture level, hopefully it will eventually trickle down to the masses and dismantle the obsession with fairness.

Customers' identities affect consumer-brand relationships in many ways. Unilever, and many other brands, capitalize on consumer beliefs and insecurities. Unilever knows that the majority of Indians are not considered "fair" and are insecure about that, thus there is a huge market for skin-lightening products, and the more they reinforce these insecurities via advertising, the better. The "Dark is Beautiful" campaign threatens their sales, so they are not incentivized to support it or change their ways. It is not realistic to expect massive brands to choose morality over revenue, thus I believe the only way to get them to change their ways is for people of influence (celebrities, Bollywood producers, etc) to reject the notion that fairness is the beauty standard, and hopefully consumers will naturally stop demanding skin lightening creams and brands will no longer need to push colorism for revenue.

Taj Mahal Sunrise tour from Delhi by Taj Same Day Tour company

Taj Same Day Tour Company's sunrise tour from Delhi

Introducing the Taj Mahal Sunrise Tour from Delhi

Anyone visiting India has to see the Taj Mahal, one of the Seven Wonders of the World. Seeing the Taj Mahal in the beautiful early light allows guests on a sunrise tour of this magnificent monument to have a quite unique and remarkable experience. The Taj Mahal Sunrise Tour from Delhi by Taj Same Day Tour Company is the ideal answer if you wish to see this famous site but have little time. From the travel to the remarkable sites, this guide will walk you through all you need to know about this trip.

What distinguishes the Taj Mahal? Not only among the most well-known buildings in the world, the Taj Mahal is among the most gorgeous ones. Constructed in honor of his wife Mumtaz Mahal, the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan created a monument to love and loyalty. A visual wonder, the exquisite white marble mausoleum blends Persian, Islamic, and Indian architecture. Together, its beautiful sculptures, soaring minarets, and large reflecting pool offer an amazing view. However, nothing compares to watching the Taj Mahal when the sun rises, throwing warm golden hues across the monument.

Why Choose a Sunrise Tour? A sunrise tour offers some distinct advantages. First, the early hours are significantly less crowded, which means you can enjoy a more serene and private encounter. The Taj Mahal may get incredibly busy during the day, so going at sunrise allows you to admire its magnificence without the overwhelming throng. Another bonus is the natural lighting. The warm morning light highlights the beauty of the white marble, providing for beautiful photos. The colors of the Taj Mahal vary significantly as the sun rises, making this the perfect time for photographers and lovers of natural beauty alike.

Delhi to Agra - The Journey Your journey begins in Delhi, where you will be picked up from your hotel or preferred location early in the morning. The travel from Delhi to Agra is around 3 to 4 hours by automobile, via the Yamuna Expressway, one of India’s best highways. During the trip, you'll have the chance to relax and enjoy the scenery of rural India. The comfortable travel guarantees that you arrive in Agra ready for the adventure ahead.

The ease of the Taj Same Day Tour Company resides in their door-to-door service. They take care of all the details, so you don't need to bother about planning transportation. Their professional drivers are punctual and assure a pleasant and safe ride.

The Majestic Sunrise at the Taj Mahal Once you arrive in Agra, you'll be brought to the Taj Mahal just in time for sunrise. The moment the first light of day meets the white marble of the Taj Mahal is simply magnificent. The monument begins to glow with delicate pink and golden hues, giving it a surreal appearance. This is the finest moment to take in the beauty of the Taj Mahal without distractions.

Exploring the monument early in the morning allows you to appreciate the serene and peaceful atmosphere. You'll have plenty of time to roam about the gardens, observe the complex decorations of the tomb, and snap photos to capture the wonderful event. A professional guide from the tour operator will also be on hand to share intriguing insights into the history and construction of the Taj Mahal, improving your experience.

Additional Attractions in Agra After visiting the Taj Mahal, your tour doesn’t finish. Next, you will visit the spectacular Agra Fort, another UNESCO World Heritage site. The fort, built of red sandstone, was formerly the seat of the Mughal rulers and offers a fascinating peek into India's rich history. Walking across its huge courtyards and majestic halls is a voyage through time.

After exploring Agra Fort, you’ll have time for a quiet breakfast at a local restaurant, where you can enjoy some excellent Indian cuisine. You may also get the option to visit local markets for souvenir shopping, where you can find magnificent handicrafts, marble inlay work, and other unique products crafted by skilled local artists.

What to Bring on the Tour For a smooth encounter, it’s necessary to be prepared. Since the Taj Mahal is a holy landmark, modest clothes is required, thus it's better to dress conservatively. Comfortable walking shoes are required, as you will be exploring the huge grounds of the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort. Don’t forget to bring a camera or smartphone to capture the spectacular scenery, especially at the sunrise.

Best Time of Year for a Sunrise Tour While the Taj Mahal is breathtaking year-round, the best time for a sunrise tour is during the cooler months, from October to March. During these months, the weather is more comfortable, and visibility is clearer, allowing for the best sunrise views. The summer months can be rather hot, and the monsoon season (July to September) may bring rain, which might conceal the sunrise.

How to Book Your Tour Booking a tour with Taj Same Day Tour Company is uncomplicated. You can visit their website to select your favorite tour date and package. The organization offers a choice of options, including private excursions and small group tours, so you may choose the one that best meets your needs. Payments are secure, and the organization has a flexible cancellation policy in case your plans change.

From the tranquil early morning hours to the spectacular vistas of the Taj Mahal sparkling in the sunrise, this tour is a must for anybody visiting India.

One of India's top motorways, the Yamuna Expressway, will take you on a pleasant and picturesque journey. You'll experience the thrill of walking into Agra's picturesque and historic surroundings as the bustle of Delhi gradually disappears.

Investigating Agra Fort The Agra Fort should be visited first when in Agra. Up until 1638, the Mughal rulers' primary palace was this enormous red sandstone citadel, now recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Its elaborate design, large courtyards, and magnificent halls will astound you. Jahangir's Palace, the Diwan-i-Aam, and the Diwan-i-Khas are some of the fort's main attractions.

Visiting the Taj Mahal: A View of the Sunset The moment you've been waiting for has arrived: seeing the Taj Mahal. First, you explore Agra Fort. Watching this natural beauty at dusk provides an even more magical experience to what is already a captivating sight.

Handicrafts like as leather items, jewelry, and marble inlay work are well-known from these busy markets. It's the ideal chance to purchase mementos or unusual presents for family members and friends back home.

Lunch at a Customary Mughal Establishment A visit to Agra wouldn't be complete without trying the native food. Savor a delectable midday meal at a classic Mughal eatery, where you can savor succulent foods including naan, kebabs, and biryani. Agra's cuisine is distinctly Mughal in influence, making it both a historical and gourmet experience.

Fatehpur Sikri: The City of Ghosts Your Agra Overnight Tour concludes at Fatehpur Sikri, also referred to as the Ghost City and a former Mughal capital. Water limitations caused this abandoned city, which was once a vibrant center of Mughal power, to be abandoned. Among the magnificent buildings you will see here are the magnificent Buland Darwaza, Panch Mahal, and Jama Masjid.

Have you ever wondered how rice is processed in India? Here's what you need to know!

Rice is a staple in the diet of billions of people around the world, and India plays a major role in feeding the global population. Being one of the largest rice producers and exporters, especially for varieties like Basmati, India’s rice industry is a vital part of the agricultural sector. But how does rice go from being harvested in the fields to the packaged product you see in stores? The journey of rice processing is a detailed and fascinating one, ensuring that consumers receive the highest quality grain. Let’s explore the key steps involved in rice processing in India.

Introduction to Rice Processing in India

Rice processing is more than just a mechanical process, it involves precision and care at every stage to ensure the rice maintains its nutritional value and quality. India produces a variety of rice, from long-grain Basmati rice to short-grain varieties, and each type undergoes rigorous processing before it is ready for export. Processing ensures that the rice is free of impurities, has a longer shelf life, and meets the standards set by the global market. Indian rice exporters, including well-known names like Kohinoor and Shri Lal Mahal, are trusted worldwide for their quality control.

Step 1: Harvesting the Rice

The first step in rice processing is harvesting, which is done once the rice grains have fully matured. In India, the harvesting period varies depending on the region and the type of rice being cultivated. Farmers must time the harvest correctly to avoid over-ripening or under-ripening of the grains. Typically, the rice is harvested when the grains turn golden yellow. Using both manual and mechanized methods, the rice is cut and gathered for further processing.

Harvesting at the right time is critical to ensure that the grain retains its full nutritional value and is not damaged. Proper timing of the harvest also affects the texture and flavor of the rice.

Step 2: Cleaning and Drying the Paddy

Once the rice is harvested, it is still in its raw form, known as paddy rice. The next step is to clean the paddy to remove any impurities like stones, husks, or straw. This is typically done using advanced machinery, although in some rural areas, traditional methods are still used.

Following the cleaning process, the rice is dried to reduce moisture content. Proper drying is essential to prevent mold or spoilage during storage. In India, sun-drying is still a common practice, especially in smaller farming communities, though modern drying machines are also used for larger-scale production. Well-dried rice has a longer shelf life and maintains its quality during transportation, which is crucial for export.

Step 3: Milling and Polishing the Rice

Milling is the process where the husk is removed from the paddy, turning it into edible rice. This step can be adjusted based on whether the rice will be consumed as brown rice (which retains some of the bran layers) or white rice (which is polished to remove all the outer layers).

For white rice, polishing is an additional step that enhances the appearance and smoothness of the grains. This gives the rice its characteristic shine and makes it more appealing to consumers. The milling and polishing process in India is performed with high precision to ensure minimal breakage of grains, thus maintaining the rice’s integrity.

Step 4: Grading and Packaging for Export

After milling, the rice is graded according to size, color, and quality. Grading ensures consistency, which is particularly important for international markets. Exporters use strict grading systems to meet the high standards demanded by buyers from around the world.

Once graded, the rice is carefully packed in moisture-proof packaging to ensure it reaches its destination in the best condition possible. The packaging is often designed to protect the rice from environmental factors during transportation, which can be a long journey, especially for export to distant markets.

Rice processing in India is a multi-step procedure that ensures high-quality rice is produced for both domestic consumption and international markets. From harvesting and cleaning to milling and packaging, every step is vital in preserving the rice’s quality, flavor, and nutritional value. India’s dedication to maintaining top-notch standards in rice processing has solidified its position as a global leader in rice exports, making Indian rice a preferred choice worldwide.

Bakshi Beedi Manufacturers: Crafting Tradition and Resilience in West Bengal

In the narrow alleys of West Bengal, amidst the scent of fresh tea leaves and the buzz of bustling markets, there exists a quiet, enduring legacy—Bakshi Beedi Manufacturers in West Bengal. This small, family-owned business, like many others in the region, represents more than just an industry; it’s a living testament to the resilience of tradition in the face of modernity.

The Roots of Bakshi Beedi

Humble Beginnings: Bakshi Beedi was founded decades ago by a group of local artisans, drawing on generations of knowledge passed down through the family. The art of beedi-making, though seemingly simple, requires a deep understanding of tobacco, tendu leaves, and the precise skill to roll them perfectly.

Community Ties: The business is deeply rooted in the local community. It provides employment to countless women and men who rely on the steady work of beedi-rolling to support their families. In a region where industrial opportunities are sparse, Bakshi Beedi plays a crucial role in sustaining livelihoods.

The Beedi-Making Process

Artisanal Craftsmanship: Unlike mass-produced cigarettes, beedis are hand-rolled. Each beedi passes through the hands of skilled workers who have honed their craft over years. The process begins with selecting the finest tobacco leaves, which are then sun-dried to achieve the desired flavor and aroma. The tendu leaves, which serve as the wrapper, are carefully picked and processed, ensuring they are pliable enough for rolling.

Women at the Helm: The majority of beedi rollers at Bakshi Beedi are women. These women are often the unsung heroes of the industry, balancing their roles as homemakers with their work. Their nimble fingers, hardened by years of labor, deftly roll hundreds of beedis a day, each one a small piece of their own stories of struggle, perseverance, and hope.

Sustainability Practices: Despite the traditional methods, Bakshi Beedi has gradually incorporated sustainable practices. They source tendu leaves from local farmers, ensuring fair trade and supporting the agricultural backbone of the region. The waste from the beedi production is also utilized as organic compost, minimizing the environmental impact.

The Challenges of Modernization

Health Concerns: The beedi industry, including Bakshi Beedi, has faced significant criticism due to health concerns associated with tobacco consumption. As awareness of these risks has grown, there has been increased pressure from public health organizations and the government to regulate or even shut down beedi production.

Economic Pressures: In an era of global competition and mechanization, small-scale manufacturers like Bakshi Beedi struggle to keep pace. The cost of raw materials has risen, and younger generations are less inclined to enter the industry, seeking more lucrative and modern employment opportunities instead.

Regulatory Hurdles: The government has imposed stringent regulations on tobacco products, including higher taxes and mandatory health warnings on packaging. While these measures are necessary to protect public health, they have further squeezed the margins for small manufacturers, making survival even more challenging.

The Emotional Connection to Tradition

Legacy and Pride: For the Bakshi family, and the many workers involved, beedi-making is not just a job but a way of life. There’s a deep sense of pride in continuing a tradition that has been handed down through generations. This pride is palpable in every aspect of their work—from the meticulous selection of leaves to the careful rolling and packaging of each beedi.

A Symbol of Resilience: The workers at Bakshi Beedi represent the resilience of rural India. Despite the hardships, the long hours, and the meager pay, they continue to roll beedis with unwavering dedication. For many, this work is not just about survival; it’s about holding onto a piece of their identity, their culture, and their heritage.

Community Support: The emotional bond between the workers and the Bakshi family is strong. The company has established informal support systems, offering advances on wages during times of crisis, providing educational assistance to workers' children, and even organizing community events. This sense of belonging and mutual respect fosters a loyalty that goes beyond the workplace.

Conclusion

Bakshi Beedi Manufacturers in West Bengal stand as a poignant example of the intersection between tradition and modern challenges. Their journey is a reflection of the broader struggle faced by many traditional industries in India—where economic realities clash with cultural heritage, and where the human element often takes center stage. Despite the uncertainties that lie ahead, the spirit of Bakshi Beedi, rooted in community, craftsmanship, and resilience, continues to burn brightly, much like the beedis they produce.

Resilience in the face of challenges is the core of Bakshi Beedi's survival.

Community support and emotional bonds are vital for the sustenance of this traditional craft.

The future may be uncertain, but the pride in preserving a time-honored tradition remains unwavering.
