Therefore, you should avoid doing some tasks on both November 22 and 23. Let's know about those tasks.
Do not consume meat and alcohol
On the day of Kaal Bhairav Jayanti, meat and alcohol are offered to Lord Kaal Bhairav. But if you consume these things instead of offering them in the puja, it is considered very inauspicious. If you eat the things that you have offered to God, it can upset your luck and Kaal Bhairav can get angry. Therefore, do not consume meat and alcohol even by mistake on the day of Kaal Bhairav Jayanti.
Householders should not perform tantric puja

Problems can increase in your family life, you may suffer financial loss and even luck can turn against you.
Do not cheat and do not tell lies.

Do not mistreat animals
Kaal Bhairav's vehicle is a dog and he loves animals and birds very much. Therefore, on the day of Kaal Bhairav Jayanti, you should not misbehave with any animal. If you feed animals and birds, you get auspicious results.
Avoid profanity
