Ratha Saptami 2026: Date, Arunodaya Snan Muhurat & Surya Puja Vidhi<\/span><\/h1>\n

Ratha Saptami<\/strong>, often revered as Surya Jayanti<\/strong> (the birthday of the Sun God), is one of the most auspicious days in the Hindu calendar dedicated to Lord Suryanarayana. Falling on the seventh day (Saptami) of the bright half of the Magha month, it marks the day the Sun God turns his Ratha (Chariot) towards the North East direction, bringing the warmth of spring and the promise of good health.<\/p>\n

For 2026, Ratha Saptami coincides with Republic Day, falling on Monday, January 26, 2026<\/strong>. It is believed that taking a holy bath (Snan) during sunrise on this day frees one from seven types of sins and ailments.<\/p>\n
