Phalguna Amavasya 2026: Date, Brahma Muhurta, and Rituals for Maximum Merit

• Phalguna Amavasya 2026 will be observed on February 17, 2026, as per Udayatithi rules, despite the tithi starting on February 16.
• Bathing in holy rivers like Ganga or Kshipra during Brahma Muhurta (before sunrise) on this day is highly auspicious for cleansing sins and resolving life's issues.
• Donating food, clothes, or money to the needy after bathing is believed to multiply the spiritual merit.
• Performing Tarpana, Shraddha, and Pind Daan for ancestors on Phalguna Amavasya helps alleviate Pitru Dosha and secures ancestral blessings.
• Key rituals include bathing at a holy water body, lighting a four-wick lamp in the south direction, feeding black cows or dogs, and performing spiritual practices for Shani Dosha.
