Lakshmi Jayanti
Lakshmi Jayanti is largely a South Indian observance — in the north the same full moon is swallowed by Holi. It is set on Phalguna Purnima because that night usually falls in Uttara Phalguni, the nakshatra linked to Lakshmi. The day's signature rite is Lakshmi Homam.

About
The image of Lakshmi worshipped on this day is Gaja Lakshmi — the form the Bhagavata Purana describes rising from the churned ocean on an open lotus, flanked by two elephants pouring water from raised vessels. Some traditions add a careful note: Lakshmi was not born at the churning. She had withdrawn into the ocean of milk after Sage Durvasa's curse on the devas, and only returned that day. The central rite is Lakshmi Homam. Priests chant the Shri Suktam from the Rig Veda khila and the Lakshmi Sahasranama — her thousand names — while feeding the fire. The distinctive ahuti is unusual: lotus blossoms dipped in honey, offered one by one. Phalguna Purnima is the last full moon of the Hindu lunar year, so the puja also closes the year's cycle.

Prarthana, Mantras & Vrat Katha

Every festival has its own prarthanas, stotras and vrat kathas. Reading or listening to them on the festival day is the simplest way to observe the tradition at home.

Inside the Dharmayana app you can listen to:

  • 1000+ prarthanas, mantras and stotras with clear audio

Browse the full collection of prarthanas or get the app to play them on the festival morning without ads.

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.
