What Is Mithuna Sankranthi?
Mithuna Sankranti is also known as 'Asharh' or 'Aani' in Sothern India and Mithunam Onth in Kerala. On this day the sun transits from Vrishabha (Taurus) to Mithuna (Gemini). The change of the Sun’s position is considered to be crucial according to the astrological effect. Hence, devotees perform puja on this day. Mithun Sankranti is celebrated with a lot of enthusiasm in Odisha where the festival is known as 'Raja Parba'. The festivities lasts for four days where devotees welcome the rains with joy and happiness. Unmarried girls dressed in beautifully attire and ornaments. Married women take a break from household work. Devotees sing the Raja Gita, a popular folk song. Men and women walk barefoot to welcome the rain with dancing and singing. Mithuna Sankranti marks the occasion of Sun moving into Gemini or Mithuna which is known as Mithuna Sankramanam. It is one of the most auspicious occasions according to Hindu traditions and customs. It marks the onset of the agricultural year all across Odisha. People welcome first rains officially by celebrating this festival. For Mithuna Sankranti, sixteen Ghati(s) after the Sankranti moment are considered auspicious and the time window from Sankranti to sixteen Ghati after Sankranti is taken for all Danam-Punyam activities. During Mithuna Sankranti donating clothes is considered highly auspicious. People pray to God for best harvest after the rain. The festival is meant to have some relaxation time. Hence, the event is the famous festival. It is believed that fasting on Raja Parba or Mithuna Sankranti to please the God Sun ensure prosperity, peace, and happiness in life.
