NEW DELHI – This year’s Mauni Amavasya, a significant Hindu festival, will be particularly auspicious due to a rare confluence of celestial events, according to astrological predictions. Observed on January 29th, 2025, the day will witness the formation of several beneficial yogas (auspicious alignments), making it an ideal time for worshipping Lord Shiva.
The Amavasya Tithi (new moon day) begins on January 28th at 7:35 PM and concludes on January 29th at 6:05 PM. However, the main observance and the Kumbh Mela’s “amrit snan” (sacred bath) will be held on the 29th.
This year’s Mauni Amavasya will see the formation of the Shravana Nakshatra Yoga (beginning at 8:20 AM on the 29th), Shiva Vasa Yoga, and Siddhi Yoga, all considered highly auspicious for worship. Additionally, the Uttara Ashadha Nakshatra Yoga will also be present. Devotees are encouraged to perform rituals and prayers to Lord Shiva during these yogas, which are believed to amplify the spiritual benefits of the day. Performing these rituals is said to bring blessings, remove obstacles, and grant fulfillment of desires.
