Masik Shivaratri – June 2026

मासिक शिवरात्रि – June 2026

Sunday, June 14, 2026Jyeshtha Masa

Masik Shivaratri in June 2026 falls on Sunday, June 14, 2026 (Jyeshtha month, Krishna Chaturdashi). Masik Shivaratri is observed every month on the 14th day of the waning moon. While Maha Shivaratri (in Phalguna) is the grandest, each monthly Shivaratri is a powerful night for Shiva worship.

Significance

Observing all 12 Masik Shivaratris in a year is considered equivalent to observing Maha Shivaratri. The night of Chaturdashi is when Lord Shiva's energy is most accessible. Night-long vigil and worship on this night gradually purifies the soul across lifetimes.

Rituals & Traditions

  • Fasting during the day and performing night-long vigil (jagaran)
  • Abhishekam of Shiva Lingam with milk, water, honey, and bhasma
  • Chanting Om Namah Shivaya through the night
  • Offering Bel (Bilva) leaves, dhatura, and white flowers
  • Breaking fast the next morning after sunrise puja
