Half part of Tithi is called as karan. Vishti, the unfavorable moveable Karana, is also known as Bhadra, who was born from the form of Lord Siva. Additional consideration may be taken in respect to Bhadra.
As per the muhurta at the time of bhadra, a person should avoid all type of good activity. Vishti Karan/Bhadra occurs on Chaturthi, Ashtami, Ekadashi & Poornima tithi of Shukla Paksha and on Tritya, Saptami, Dashami & Chaturdashi tithi of Krishna Paksha.
In Krishna Paksha, Bhadra occurs in the Northern half (उत्तरार्ध ) of Tritiya and Dashami.
In the same way, it occurs in the Eastern half (पूर्वार्ध ) of Saptami and Chaturdashi.
Bhadra is auspicious for yagna, barter transactions, jaatkarma samskara and cookingwork. Bhadra is only inauspicious in election.
Bhadra is not always unfavorable. Bhadra has a mouth and a tail, which determine the favorable and unfavorable periods of Bhadra. In order to determine the mouth and tail of Bhadra, Bhadra is first divided into 4 equal parts, each of which is 1½ degrees of the Karana’s duration
Mouth:
The mouth of Bhadra begins at the beginning of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th parts and lasts for 5 Nadis, or one degree.
2nd half of 4th Tithi, Shukla Paksha: Mouth begins at 1st part.
1st half of 8th Tithi, Shukla Paksha: Mouth begins at 2nd part.
2nd half of 11th Tithi, Shukla Paksha: Mouth begins at 3rd part.
1st half of 15th Tithi, Shukla Paksha: Mouth begins at 4th part.
2nd half of 3rd Tithi, Krishna Paksha: Mouth begins at 4th part.
1st half of 7th Tithi, Krishna Paksha: Mouth begins at 3rd part.
2nd half of 10th Tithi, Krishna Paksha: Mouth begins at 2nd part.
1st half of 14th Tithi, Krishna Paksha: Mouth begins at 1st part.
The mouth of Bhadra is the most unfavorable part of Bhadra.
Events begun in the mouth of Bhadra suffer the full measure of ill that Bhadra has to give, thus no beneficial events should be done in the mouth of Bhadra. Ill actions, however, are very favorably done in the mouth of Bhadra, and incur their full damage.
Tail:
The tail ends, after 3 Nadis or 36 minutes of arc, at the end of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd or the 4th part:
2nd half of 4th Tithi, Shukla Paksha: Tail ends at 4th part.
1st half of 8th Tithi, Shukla Paksha: Tail ends at 1st part.
2nd half of 11th Tithi, Shukla Paksha: Tail ends at 2nd part.
1st half of 15th Tithi, Shukla Paksha: Tail ends at 3rd part.
2nd half of 3rd Tithi, Krishna Paksha: Tail ends at 3rd part.
1st half of 7th Tithi, Krishna Paksha: Tail ends at 2nd part.
2nd half of 10th Tithi, Krishna Paksha: Tail ends at 1st part.
1st half of 14th Tithi, Krishna Paksha: Tail ends at 4th part.
The tail of Bhadra is actually favorable; it represents the end of all duress, therefore, when no better Muhurta is available, beneficial events may be performed in the tail of Bhadra. All actions, however, should not be performed in the tail of Bhadra, as their maliciousness and destructive capacity will fall short.
Residence of Bhadra:
Bhadra resides in different places depending upon the Rasi that the Moon is in:
When the Moon is in Cancer, Leo, Aquarius or Pisces, Bhadra lives in Mrityuloka (Earth).
When the Moon is in Aries, Taurus, Gemini or Scorpio, Bhadra lives in Svargaloka (Heaven).
When the Moon is in Virgo, Libra, Sagittarius or Capricorn, Bhadra lives in Patalaloka (Underworld).
Bhadra is considered to most significantly affect the area in which it resides.
The effects of Bhadra will be most felt when the Moon is in Cancer, Leo, Aquarius or Pisces, since at that time Bhadra lives on Earth. In situations when no better Muhurta is available, beneficial actions may be performed under Bhadra when Bhadra is not living on Earth; in other words, when the Moon is not in Cancer, Leo, Aquarius or Pisces. On the other hand, when performing ill actions under Bhadra it will be the most favorable to have Bhadra living on Earth.
Avoidance of Bhadra
If day’s Bhadra arrives during night time and vice versa, the ill effects would be avoided. Bhadra which does not affect the Earth is considered to be auspicious.
According to another opinion, it is auspicious if Bhadra of the northern half arrives in day time and Bhadra of the eastern half arrives in night time.
If any auspicious activity may not be avoided during Bhadra, you may carry out with it during Swarg or Paatal Lok Bhadra.
