Vat Purnima
On Jyeshtha Purnima, married women in Maharashtra, Gujarat and Goa tie raw thread around a banyan trunk and circle it seven times — one round for each of the seven lifetimes in which they ask for the same husband. The day marks Savitri's argument with Yama under that very tree.

About
The story comes from the Mahabharata's Vana Parva. Savitri chose Satyavan despite sage Narada's warning that he would die within a year. When Yama came to take his soul, Savitri followed. She won three boons through her arguments — and used the third to ask for sons by Satyavan, which forced Yama to return him to life. The encounter is said to have taken place beneath a banyan, which is why the tree itself receives worship. The banyan is chosen for more than the story. Its aerial roots keep dropping and re-rooting, so the tree effectively never dies — a living image of the long life women ask for. Maharashtrian tradition identifies its three parts with the Trimurti: Brahma in the roots, Vishnu in the trunk, Shiva in the branches. Women offer soaked chana, mango and water at the base.

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.
