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.
Frequently Asked Questions
When is Masi Magam in 2027?
Masi Magam 2027 falls on Saturday, 20 February 2027.
What is Masi Magam?
The day Lord Shiva freed Varuna, god of the seas, from the sin of Brahmahatti — and Varuna's boon made every coastal bath on this day merit-bearing. Falls when Magha nakshatra meets the Tamil month of Masi (Feb–Mar), marked by temples carrying their deities down to the sea for theerthavari, the ritual immersion.
Why is Masi Magam observed?
The legend explains the bath. When Varuna withdrew into the ocean under a curse, the rains stopped and the world starved; the devas pleaded with Shiva, who released him on this day. In gratitude, Varuna asked that anyone bathing at sacred tirthas now receive his blessing. At Tirunallur's Saptasagara Tirtha, the seven seas are said to merge into one pool. Temple processions reflect this — at Kumbakonam's Adi Kumbeswarar temple, the deities are taken to the Mahamaham tank; at the nearby Ramaswamy temple, Rama and Sita are carried to the same tank and theertha prasad is shared. The festival is older than it looks: a 1016 CE inscription from Rajendra Chola's reign records Nagapattinam villagers funding its sixth day, and Kulothunga I's Chidambaram pillars name it 'Masi Kadaladal' — the Masi sea-bathing.
What are the other names for Masi Magam?
Masi Magam is also known as Magha Purnima and Masi Makam.
