Lord Sri Krishna was born on the lunar day Bahula Ashtami known as KaAlaAshtami at midnight in the constellation of Rohini Nakshathra in the lunar month SraAvana maasam when Moon (Chandra) was in Vrushabha RaAsi and Sun was in Simha RaAsi. If there is occurrence of both KaAlaAAshtami and Rohini star at midnight time that Ashtami is referred to as Jayanthi Yoga which is considered as highly sacred and meritorious which is capable of destroying all the evils and sins.
