Marathi Calendar 2025: Detailed festival and auspicious dates

Marathi Calendar 2025 with Holidays & Festivals: The Marathi calendar is a traditional way of marking time, commonly followed in Maharashtra. It’s based on the lunar cycle and includes religious festivals, fasting days, and practical markers like Sankrantis, which signify solar transitions. Starting with the month of Chaitra, each month ties into seasonal changes and cultural practices. For example, Gudi Padwa marks the Marathi New Year and marks the arrival of spring.

What’s unique about the Marathi calendar is how it connects spiritual traditions with everyday life. It uses tithis (lunar dates) and nakshatras (constellations) to decide auspicious times for rituals, ceremonies, and festivals. Ganesh Chaturthi is a major example—celebrated across Maharashtra, it brings people together to honour Lord Ganesh with devotion and vibrant festivities. Then there’s Makar Sankranti, which marks the sun entering Capricorn. It’s a time to celebrate the harvest and recognise the changing seasons.

Sankrantis, which reflect the sun’s movement through zodiac signs, have both spiritual and practical importance. They act as markers for seasonal transitions, which is especially relevant in an agrarian society. Beyond festivals and farming, the calendar helps organise daily life, blending cosmic patterns with human routines.
