Bhaumvati Amavasya (Ashadha)

14 July 2026

Significance

Any Amavasya that aligns with a Tuesday (Mangalvar) is called Bhaumvati Amavasya. Since Tuesday is ruled by Mangal (Mars), this alignment is considered powerful for clearing financial debts and neutralising Mangal Dosh in one's astrological chart.

Rituals & Customs

Devotees take a holy bath in the morning. Special prayers are offered to Lord Hanuman. Donating red items such as red cloth, Masoor dal, and copper utensils is considered beneficial.

Fasting Rules

There is no strict universal fast, but those performing specific planetary pujas abstain from food until their holy bath, worship, and donations are fully completed.

Auspicious Timing

Early morning hours during the active Amavasya tithi.
