When Is Ashadha Purnima In 2025? Know The Date, Timing, Puja Rituals, And More
Ashadha Purnima 2025: According to the Hindu Panchang, the name of each month is determined by the constellation (Nakshatra) in which the Moon resides on the full moon (Purnima) day. On the last day of the Shukla Paksha of Ashadha month, the Moon is positioned in the Purvashada Nakshatra. Hence, the day is known as Ashadha Purnima.
