New Delhi: As the scorching summer sun reaches its peak, the Hindu calendar marks the arrival of Jyeshta month, the third month in the lunar year, following Vaishakh. Deeply rooted in Sanatan tradition, this period is considered highly auspicious and spiritually potent. Jyeshta is dedicated to Lord Surya (the Sun God), symbolising vitality, strength, and divine light. It is believed that during this time, Surya Dev is at his most powerful, and his blessings can bring health, prosperity, and spiritual growth.
Jyeshta is also known for its intense heat, and this climatic extremity has spiritual significance. Acts of charity—especially donating water, food, or essentials—are seen as immensely virtuous. Rituals like Ganga Snan (holy river bathing), fasting, and prayer are believed to purify the soul and remove obstacles. The month is also associated with several important festivals and fasts, each carrying its own symbolic value and tradition of observance.
When Does Jyeshta Month Begin and End in 2025?
According to the Vedic Panchang, Jyeshta month in 2025 begins on Tuesday, 13 May, and will conclude on Wednesday, 11 June.
