Sisira is the deep winter
Late Winter
Sisira is the deep winter that runs from mid-January to mid-March, and up until April and May in some regions. It is wet, cold, and slow. Kapha increases during this time, so you need to make more efforts to fire up the agni. While this is a pleasant time for people with kapha prakruti, this may not be such a good time for vata people. This time of the year, the moisture from your skin is driven out by the cold windy clime and body heat is high.
