Sawan Shivratri 2026: Saavan is considered a very holy month in Hindu religion. This year the month of Sawan will start from 30th July and will end on 28th August. This month has been dedicated to Mahadev, the god of gods. According to mythological beliefs, Mahadev had taken the poison that came out of the churning of the ocean in his throat, but after consuming the poison, due to the effect of the poison, heat started increasing in his body. Then the gods offered him water to cool his body. All this incident happened in the month of Sawan, hence there is a tradition of special worship of Shiva and Jalabhishek in Sawan.
Shivratri falling in this month also has special significance. The Shivaratri which falls in the month of Sawan is called Sawan Shivratri. It is believed that every year in Sawan, Lord Shiva comes to his in-laws’ house. The day of Sawan Shivratri is considered as fruitful as Mahashivratri. It is believed that by worshiping Lord Shiva on Shivratri of Sawan and offering water on Shivalinga, all the troubles of life go away.
