Shani Pradosh 2025 Date: Everything To Know About Tithi, Puja, Muhurat, Significance And More

Shani Pradosh Vrat is a spiritually significant day observed by devotees of Lord Shiva, particularly when Pradosh Vrat falls on a Saturday, a day ruled by Lord Shani (Saturn). In 2025, Shani Pradosh will be observed on Saturday, March 1, 2025. The convergence of Lord Shiva’s worship with the energy of Shani makes this day especially powerful for seeking blessings, forgiveness, and relief from hardships.

Significance of Shani Pradosh

Shani Pradosh is considered highly auspicious for those seeking relief from the malefic effects of Shani Dosha (Saturn’s ill effects) in their horoscope. Worshipping Lord Shiva and Lord Shani together on this day is believed to help remove obstacles, reduce suffering, and bring peace and prosperity. Observing a vrat (fast) on this day with devotion can help cleanse one's karma and attract divine blessings.

Puja Rituals

On this auspicious day, devotees should wake up early and take a bath before Sunrise. Clean your home with Gangajal and wear neat and clean clothes. It is best to visit the Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati temple on this day to seek blessings. But if you can't visit the temple, you can worship the deity at home.

Prepare an asan and put a cloth on it. Place the idols of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. Offer white flowers, panchamrit, bhog (kheer, fruits, and dry fruits) and recite Shiv Purana, and finally perform Lord Shiva and Goddess ParvatiAarti.
