Festivals and Observances

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.

Shravana Somavara - Trithiya

The third of Shravan's Mondays — the midpoint of the Solah Somvar, a 16-week vow that begins on the month's first Monday and which Parvati herself is said to have kept to win Shiva. Today's abhishek is done with bilva leaves and milk.

Shravana Somavara - Prathama

The first Monday of Shravana — Prathama Somavara — traditionally opens the Solah Somwar vow: sixteen straight Monday fasts begun on this day to seek a spouse or marital welfare. In North India it also launches the Kanwar Yatra, when devotees walk home with Ganga water to bathe a Shiva linga.

Masik Sankranti

Masik Sankranti is the exact moment the Sun crosses from one sidereal rashi into the next — a solar pivot that happens twelve times a year. Unlike tithi-based festivals tied to the moon, it anchors the Hindu solar month. Tradition reserves the day for charity and a holy dip, not new ceremonies.

Chitra Nakshatra

Chitra is the 14th lunar mansion — the bright star Spica — whose presiding deity is Tvashtar, the divine artisan also known as Vishvakarman. Its symbol is a shining pearl, and the Moon transits it roughly once a month. Panchanga tradition lists it among the 'good muhurat' stars for most auspicious work.

Frequently Asked Questions

Panchanga (literally "five limbs") is the traditional Hindu almanac that describes the state of the sky for any given day. Its five elements — Tithi (lunar day), Vaara (weekday), Nakshatra (star), Yoga (sun-moon alignment) and Karana (half-tithi) — together determine which times of the day are considered auspicious and which are to be avoided for important activities.
