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 Dhumavati Jayanti in 2027?
Dhumavati Jayanti 2027 falls on Friday, 11 June 2027.
What is Dhumavati Jayanti?
Marked on Jyeshtha Shukla Ashtami, this is the birth day of the only Mahavidya worshipped as a widow. Dhumavati rides a horseless chariot under a crow banner, and her temple at Varanasi receives offerings most shrines refuse — liquor, meat, bhang, even cigarettes.
Why is Dhumavati Jayanti observed?
Her name means 'she of smoke'. The Pranatoshini Tantra tells how Sati, faint with hunger, swallowed Shiva whole; when he asked to be released, he then cursed her to wear widow's form forever. A second account in the Swatantra Tantra has her rise from the smoke of Sati's self-immolation at Daksha's yajna. Her two emblems carry the teaching. The winnowing basket stands for viveka — the skill of separating the lasting from the passing, as grain from chaff. The crow, eater of carrion, marks her rule over loss and decay. Because she embodies widowhood, married couples generally do not worship her at home; the rite belongs to tantrics and renunciates, who seek her as the giver of siddhis and as the planetary remedy for Ketu.
