What is Bhadrapada Purnima? 

Bhadrapada Purnima is the sixth full moon day (Purnima) of the year and occurs in the Hindu month called Bhadrapada (Hindu lunar calendar). It is considered highly auspicious to worship Lord Vishnu in his form as Lord Satyanarayan.

What is the Bhadrapada Purnima Significance? 

Several ancient Hindu texts, such as the Matsya Purana and the Shrimad Bhagwatam, mention that it is the day to perform charity and worship Lord Vishnu. So, let us understand the Bhadrapada Purnima significance: 

• Beginning of Shradh:  Bhado Purnima is very important because it marks the beginning of the 16-day period called Pitru Paksha. This is why, during the Bhadrapada Purnima celebration, some people donate in the name of their ancestors to get their blessings. 

• Day of Blessings: It is the day when people seek blessings from Lord Vishnu to ward off negative energies and welcome happiness, peace and prosperity.

• Benefits of Charity: Giving food, clothes, or money to the poor and needy is believed to remove past sins. So, do not forget to donate the necessary items for maximum benefits. 

• Moon in Bhadrapada Nakshatra: Astrologically, on the Bhado Purnima, the Moon resides in the Bhadrapada Nakshatra. So, expect energies related to this nakshatra to be highly active during the Purnima, eg self-consciousness, spirituality and so on. 

What Makes Bhadrapada Purnima 2025 Special? 

Our astrology experts predict two astrological events coinciding with Bhado Purnima, making it even more special. So, let us know what they are and their impacts on you.

This year, Bhadrapada Purnima falls under the Sukarma Yoga. Astrologers claim this yoga is highly favourable for starting any new project. So, any good deed you perform on this day will give you lasting positive results.

2. Lunar Eclipse (Chandra Grahan 2025)

Bhadrapada Purnima this year coincides with a lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan). However, astrologically, performing any auspicious activity during Chandra Grahan is strictly prohibited, making Bhadrapada Purnima celebrations a bit tricky. 

Bhadrapada Purnima 2025 Pujan Vidhi 

Following the proper pujan vidhi on this day helps devotees seek blessings for health, wealth, and peace. Here is the complete Bhadrapada Poornima Pujan Vidhi: 

1. Morning Bath 

On the day of Bhadrapada Poornima, people take a bath early in the morning to begin the actual rituals. After the purification, people also observe a Uma Maheshwar fast on this day. 

2. Worship of Lord Satyanarayana 

Perform the worship of Lord Satyanarayan by offering fruits, flowers, and red sandalwood paste with full devotion. If you perform this ritual with great devotion, then you seek blessings from Lord Vishnu. 

3. Listening to Satyanarayan Katha 

After the necessary rituals, it is now time to listen to Satyanarayan Katha with full attention and devotion. However, if you cannot arrange the katha at your own home, you should participate in the katha or pooja arranged by other devotees. 

4. Distribution of the Prasad 

Last but not least is the distribution of the prasad of Maha Mrityunjaya Havan or Satyanarayan Katha to the people. The prasadam distributed on this auspicious occasion consists of five ingredients: sugar, milk, curd, ghee and honey.
