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.
Personalised Astrology Around Festivals
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 Saraswati Puja in 2027?
Saraswati Puja 2027 falls on Saturday, 9 October 2027.
What is Saraswati Puja?
The South Indian counterpart to North India's Vasant Panchami worship of Saraswati — timed to the Mula nakshatra of Sharad Navratri, considered the goddess's birth star. Families lock away books and instruments on Ashtami and reopen them only on Vijayadashami, when children write their first letter.
Why is Saraswati Puja observed?
The four-day version follows specific nakshatras rather than tithis: Avahan (invocation) on Mula, the main Puja on Purva Ashadha, Balidan on Uttara Ashadha, and Visarjan (immersion) on Shravana. The ritual prescriptions come from texts like the Vratraj and Rudrayamal. In Kerala and Tamil Nadu the simpler three-day form is common — books and palm-leaf manuscripts are placed before the goddess on Ashtami in a rite called Puja Vypu, and the household stops reading them until they are taken back on Vijayadashami morning. That return is paired with Ezhuthiniruttu, when a child is guided to trace the first letter in a tray of rice. The same day is also Ayudha Puja, so tools and vehicles sit alongside books before the goddess.
What are the other names for Saraswati Puja?
Saraswati Puja is also known as Saraswathi Puje.
Which prarthanas are recited on Saraswati Puja?
Saraswati Vandana and Saraswati Gayatri Mantra are recited on Saraswati Puja. You can listen to them with audio on this page.
