Spiritual Significance: Masik Shivratri & Vrishabha Sankranti
Today is particularly sacred for devotees of Lord Shiva, as the fast of Masik Shivratri is observed. Worshipping Shiva during the midnight hours (Nishita Kaal) is believed to fulfill deep desires. Additionally, today marks the Sun’s transit into Taurus, known as ‘Vrishabha Sankranti.’ This transition is considered highly meritorious for taking holy baths in sacred rivers and performing acts of charity.
