    Although every month in the Hindu calendar is considered auspicious, the Shravan month has a special significance in the Hindu religion. Shravan is the fifth month of the Hindu year.

    The Shravan month derives its name from the “Shravan” Nakshatra, which rules the skies this month. In fact, the Shravan month is very much synonymous with the auspiciousness of the festivals. The Shravan month is considered the best time to conduct all-important religious ceremonies. All the Shravan month days are very auspicious for a good start or “Shubh Aarambh.” Moreover, Lord Shiva rules the entire Shravan month. The Mondays in the Sawan Month have a special significance for the devotees. It is known as “Shravan Somvar.”

Shravan Month is considered highly auspicious by the Hindus.
