    When Is Mauni Amavasya 2026?

    The Magh month Amavasya falls on Sunday, 18 January 2026.

    According to the Panchang, the Amavasya tithi begins at 12:03 AM on 18 January 2026 and concludes at 1:21 AM on 19 January 2026. Based on the Udaya Tithi (sunrise rule), Mauni Amavasya will be observed on 18 January 2026.

    This date not only holds traditional importance but is also considered the most powerful Amavasya of the year among the 12 new moon days of 2026. Devotees regard it as the pinnacle of spiritual purity and divine energy during the winter Magh month.

    Why Mauni Amavasya Is Spiritually Important

    Mauni Amavasya is celebrated as a holy bathing festival, where taking a dip in sacred rivers such as the Ganga and Yamuna is believed to offer blessings equivalent to divine nectar. Ancient belief holds that on this day, the waters of the Ganga attain an amrit-like quality, washing away both known and unknown sins.

    This day is equally significant for observing Maun Vrat. Saints, devotees, and spiritual practitioners maintain complete silence, believing that it brings mental peace, clarity and spiritual elevation.

    Ancestral rituals such as tarpan and shraddh are also performed on this tithi, as it is believed to grant peace to the departed and amplify the benefits of charity. Giving daan on Mauni Amavasya is said to bring immense spiritual merit.
