Masik Shivratri 2025: Date, time, rituals and remedies that attract Lord Shiva’s blessings

Mumbai: Masik Shivratri, observed every month on the Chaturdashi Tithi of the Krishna Paksha (waning phase of the moon), is a sacred day dedicated to Lord Shiva. Devotees believe that by fasting and offering prayers on this day, they can receive the blessings of Bholenath (another name for Lord Shiva), leading to the fulfilment of desires and spiritual upliftment. Each Masik Shivratri provides an opportunity for devotees to connect deeply with Lord Shiva through worship, meditation, and rituals.

In 2025, the Masik Shivratri of Chaitra month will be observed on 27 March. According to the Vedic Panchang, the Chaturdashi Tithi begins at 11:03 PM on 27 March and ends at 7:55 PM on 28 March. Following the sunrise-based tithi system, Masik Shivratri will be celebrated on 27 March 2025, with fasting and night-long worship taking place on the same day.

Special Rituals and Remedies to Perform on Masik Shivratri

On this sacred night, devotees can perform the following remedies and rituals to attract the grace of Lord Shiva:

1. Shivling Abhishek

  • Perform abhishek of the Shivling using:
  • Milk, curd, honey, ghee, and Ganga Jal
  • Offer Bilva (bael) leaves, Datura flowers, and other white flowers.
  • Chant “Om Namah Shivaya” 108 times or more with devotion.

2. For Success in Work and Life

If your plans often fail or face sudden obstacles:

  • Light a diya (lamp) in a Shiva temple.
  • Use white sandalwood paste to write “Om” on the Shivling.
  • Offer a kaudi (cowrie shell) to the Shivling and later place it in your home’s safe or locker.

3. To Overcome Financial Issues

  • Offer 11 Bilva leaves to the Shivling, writing “Om Namah Shivaya” on each leaf using sandalwood paste. This is believed to invite abundance and resolve monetary struggles.

4. For Wish Fulfilment

  • State your heartfelt desire in front of Lord Shiva and sincerely pray for it during your worship. Devotees often claim miraculous results through this simple act of surrender.

5. Donate to the Needy

  • Feeding the poor, donating clothes, or offering food in temples is highly auspicious on this day. Giving dakshina (charity) to Brahmins also enhances spiritual merit.

Spiritual Significance of Masik Shivratri

Masik Shivratri holds immense importance for those seeking peace, spiritual progress, and resolution of life’s challenges. It is believed to:

  • Reduce the impact of negative karma
  • Strengthen marital relationships
  • Help childless couples receive blessings for progeny
  • Aid in nullifying doshas like Kaal Sarp Dosh, Pitru Dosh, and other planetary afflictions in the birth chart

For Shiva devotees, each monthly Shivratri is a powerful occasion to engage in sincere worship, which in turn brings divine blessings, inner peace, and liberation from worldly burdens.
