Festival Date, Tithi & Muhurat
Hindu festivals are tied to a specific Tithi, not a fixed date — so the day shifts every year and even varies slightly across cities.
Open the Panchanga for the festival day to see the exact Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga, Karana and Shubh Muhurat for pooja in your location.
The Dharmayana app keeps track of all upcoming festivals on the Hindu calendar and reminds you in advance.

Festivals are also a good time to look at your kundali — many families plan sankalp, donations or new beginnings around them.
Inside the app you can:
- Generate your personal Vedic kundali
- Talk to a Jyotisha for guidance around career, relationships or health
- Run kundali matching before fixing a marriage during the festival season
All of this is available inside the Dharmayana app — no fixed schedule, use it whenever you need it.
Frequently Asked Questions
When is Naga Panchami in 2027?
Naga Panchami 2027 falls on Friday, 6 August 2027. Panchami tithi runs from 02:27 AM, 6 Aug to 12:23 AM, 7 Aug IST, as calculated for Ujjain. Times shift by a few minutes for other cities.
What is Naga Panchami?
The fifth day of Shravana's bright fortnight commemorates Sage Astika halting King Janamejaya's snake-sacrifice — saving the Nagas mid-flame. Households leave the earth undug, skip frying, and offer raw milk, turmeric and kumkum at anthills and snake-holes to twelve named serpents led by Ananta, Vasuki and Takshaka.
Why is Naga Panchami observed?
The day's hidden logic is the monsoon: flooded burrows push cobras into homes, and snakebite deaths peak in Shravana. The rituals answer that fear precisely. No digging — you might strike a nest. No knife on vegetables — a cobra may have curled up inside. No frying — hot oil offends the Naga. Maharashtra's Battis Shirale holds the loudest observance: live cobras, caught weeks earlier at the Bendur festival and kept undefanged in earthen pots, are paraded through the village. Ujjain opens its Nagchandreshwar shrine, sealed for the other 364 days, atop the Mahakaleshwar temple. In Gujarat the Amanta calendar shifts the day to Shravana Krishna Paksha, three days before Janmashtami. Garuda — Vishnu's eagle and the serpents' natural foe — is invoked the same day to neutralise sarpa-dosha in a horoscope.
What are the other names for Naga Panchami?
Naga Panchami is also known as Garuda Panchami.
Which prarthanas are recited on Naga Panchami?
Navanaga Stotra, Ananta Nag Gayatri Mantra, Sarp Gayatri Mantra and Vasuki Nag Gayatri Mantra are recited on Naga Panchami. You can listen to them with audio on this page.
