Overview

The Hindu month of Bhadrapada, also known as Bhado, begins on August 29, 2026. This period is characterized by significant spiritual practices, fasting, and the worship of deities including Lord Krishna, Lord Ganesha, and Lord Vishnu. During this month, several key observances are scheduled. Bahula Chaturthi involves a sacred fast dedicated to motherhood and the service of cows. Krishna Janmashtami, marking the birth of Lord Krishna, occurs on September 4, 2026. The Ashtami Tithi concludes on September 5, with primary midnight worship occurring between 11:57 PM on September 4 and 12:43 AM on September 5. The Janmashtami celebration features auspicious alignments such as Harshan Yoga, Budhaditya Yoga, and Sunapha Yoga, alongside the Rohini Nakshatra. On September 3, 2026, the calendar marks Sheetala Saptami, traditionally dedicated to the worship of Lord Vishnu and Devguru Brihaspati. On September 5, the Navami Tithi continues until 9:53 PM, a day when worship of Lord Shani and Hanuman is recommended. Following these observances, the Hindu Panchang provides specific timings for September 10 and 11, 2026. On September 10, the Chaturdashi Tithi lasts until 10:34 AM, followed by the Amavasya Tithi.
