Wednesday, January 29, 2025 is the auspicious day of Mauni Amavasya, a day of great spiritual significance during the Maha Kumbh Mela. Devotees congregate on this new moon day to meditate, reflect, and take a sacred plunge in the Triveni Sangam, which is the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and Saraswati rivers.
Today is a very powerful spiritual day, intensified by the Sun-Moon conjunction in Capricorn and Jupiter’s 9th aspect from Taurus. Saturn, who rules Capricorn, urges us to be disciplined and focus within.
This is the ideal moment for a Shahi Snan and meditation for Maha Kumbh visitors. If you are unable to attend, you can still unleash spiritual growth and karmic cleaning by completing certain treatments and meditation techniques at home.
