Importance of Pushyamu

Pushyamu is a spiritually profound month in the Telugu calendar, often dedicated to meditation, austerity, and honoring one’s ancestors. While it is traditionally known as "Sunya Masam" and is generally avoided for auspicious ceremonies like weddings, it is considered highly beneficial for spiritual growth and inner reflection. The month is highlighted by the grand harvest festival, Makara Sankranti, which marks the sun’s transition into Capricorn. Devotees often perform charitable acts and offer prayers to the Sun God during this period to seek health and prosperity.

Importance of Maghamu

Maghamu is revered as one of the most meritorious months for performing holy dips, known as "Magha Snanam," in sacred rivers at sunrise. This month is dedicated to Lord Vishnu and the Sun God, Surya. It is believed that charitable deeds and worship during Maghamu yield multifold results. Key festivals such as Ratha Saptami, celebrating the birth of the Sun God, and Bhishma Ekadasi fall within this month. It is a time symbolizing purification, the removal of sins, and the rejuvenation of spiritual energy.
