The Significance of Nautapa 2026 for Sun Worship
Nautapa 2026 began on May 25 and will continue until June 2, 2026. In the Hindu calendar, this nine-day period begins when the Sun enters the Rohini Nakshatra during the month of Jyeshtha. Known as Nautapa, these nine days are considered exceptionally powerful in astrology. It is believed that the Sun’s rays become intensely sharp during this time, causing temperatures to soar to their peak. Spiritually, Nautapa holds great importance as a time for devotion, penance, and charity. Observing Sun worship with proper rituals and reciting the Surya Chalisa during this period is said to yield special merit and strengthen the position of the Sun in one’s birth chart.
