Vrishabha Sankranti 2025: Sankramanam Date, Punya Kaal Muhurta, Rituals and Vrishabha Sankranthi Phalam

Vrishabha Sankranti, also known as Vrishabha Sankramanam in South India, is an important event in the Hindu solar calendar. In 2025, it will be observed on Thursday, May 15. This Sankranti marks the Sun’s transit into the Taurus (Vrishabha) zodiac sign, and it signals the start of the second month in the Hindu solar year.

Vrishabha Sankranti 2025 Date and Time

There are twelve Sankrantis in a year, each one representing the Sun’s entry into a new zodiac sign. Among these, Vrishabha Sankranti holds spiritual importance for dan-punya (charity and virtuous deeds). Devotees believe that performing religious activities during this time brings prosperity, peace, and spiritual merit.

Auspicious Time for Rituals

For Vrishabha Sankranti, the sixteen Ghatis (approximately 6 hours and 24 minutes) before the Sankranti moment are considered Shubh (auspicious). This time window is ideal for carrying out sacred rituals like charity (daan), bathing in holy rivers, and worshipping deities.

One of the most sacred acts on this day is Godan, or the donation of a cow. In Hindu tradition, gifting a cow during Sankranti is believed to cleanse sins and bring immense spiritual rewards.
