    Phalguna Amavasya 2026: Know Date, Significance, Rituals, Sacred Traditions, And More

    1 month ago

    Phalguna Amavasya will be observed on February 17, 2026. As the day falls on a Tuesday, it will be marked as Bhomvati Amavasya, a rare and significant occasion in the Hindu calendar. Adding to its importance, a solar eclipse will also occur on this day.

    According to religious beliefs, performing prescribed rituals on Amavasya helps in planetary pacification and removal of doshas. A holy dip on this day is considered highly beneficial for physical and mental purification. Bathing in the Ganga on Amavasya is believed to be especially auspicious, as the river’s water is said to attain nectar-like purity. Donations made on Amavasya are believed to cleanse sins accumulated over many lifetimes and bring prosperity and happiness.
