Vasupanchakam Dosham Pariharam Shanti: Avittam (Dhanishta) is the starting Nakshatram and Panchankam means five. Panchakam is created due to the union of five constellations or Nakshatram. Therefore called Vasupanchankam. Vasupanchankam Shanti Pooja with fire lab (Agni) is called Vasupanchakam Shanti Homa or Marana Shanti.
When the person dies in Avittam, Chathayam/Sadayam, Poorattathi, Uthirattathi, and Revathi nakshatras, one should perform Samayam/Kaal Shanti pooja. This Shanti pooja avoids series of sudden and accidental deaths in the family in a short period of one month- twelve months.

However one should consult Vadhyars/Pandit regarding funeral Vidhi for persons who died during Vasupanchakam nakshatras or funeral takes place during the Vasupanchakam days as per the Hindu calendar.
