Meena Sankranti 2023 Date, Meena Sankranthi
Meena Sankranti is observed on the auspicious day when sun moves from Kumbh Rashi (Aquarius) to the Meena Rashi (Pisces). Sun keeps moving from one zodiac sign to another and stays for a month in each zodiac sign. Meena Sankranti marks the beginning of the last month in Hindu Solar Calendar.
Devotees on this day get up early and take a dip in the holy river like Ganga, Yamuna, Saraswati etc. and seek blessings and forgiveness from Sun God or Surya to be freed from all their sins. After that offer Arghya to Surya Bhagwaan, chant Surya mantras and pray and seek good fortune from Surya. Many people do not consume onion, garlic, and alcohol. The sun’s transition from one phase to another makes the day longer and the night shorter.
