Why Tamil Nadu Celebrates Hanumath Jayanthi on Margashirsha Amavasya?

In Tamil Nadu, Hanumath Jayanthi is linked to Margashirsha Amavasya, often coinciding with Moolam Nakshatram. Scriptures mention that Lord Hanuman was born during this combination. When Moolam Nakshatra does not align with Amavasya, the Amavasya day is given priority.

In the Gregorian calendar, the Tamil observance usually falls in December or January.
