New Moon in Shravana Nakshatra
29 January 2025
The upcoming New Moon in Shravana Nakshatra holds special experience in Vedic calendar. It is called a Mauni Amavasya or “Silent New Moon” - the New Moon of going within, back to the source of our being. This particular New Moon is also among the most important days within the entire sacred period of Kumbha Mela to take a holy dip in the sacred rivers. It is believed that waters of Mother Ganga turn into amrita or nectar on that special day.
And there are so many ways to honour that. As saint Kabir wrote, Ganga, Yamuna and Saraswati, also flow within us, in the form of our central energy channel (sushumna) and two polar channels accompanying it (ida and pingala). To go within and reconnect with our central channel, with the core of our soul, is to take a sacred dip into eternity.
