Month-by-Month Sashti – 2035
About Sashti in the Tamil Calendar
Sashti (சஷ்டி) falls on the 6th day of both the Shukla and Krishna Paksha of every lunar month. It is a day particularly sacred to Lord Murugan (also known as Skanda, Kartikeya, or Subramanya), the Tamil deity of war and victory.
The most important Sashti observance is Skanda Sashti, which falls in the Tamil month of Aipasi (October-November). This six-day festival culminates in the celebration of Lord Murugan's victory over the demon Soorapadman. Devotees undertake a severe six-day fast during Skanda Sashti, subsisting only on a special diet of rice gruel.
On regular monthly Sashti days, devotees recite the Skanda Sashti Kavacham — a powerful protective hymn that invokes Lord Murugan's blessings. Visiting Murugan temples (Arulmigu Murugan temples like Palani, Thiruchendur, and Swamimalai) and performing abhishekam to the Vel (divine spear) are common practices. Sashti is also associated with the removal of skin diseases and obstacles.
