Ashadha Amavasya 2025: It is widely believed that on the sacred occasion of Ashadha Amavasya, the souls of our ancestors (Pitras) descend to the Earth. Any rituals, prayers, tarpan (offering to ancestors), donations, or water offerings performed on this day are said to directly reach them.

For individuals whose birth charts reflect Pitra Dosha, Graha Dosha, or Shani Dosha, Ashadha Amavasya offers a powerful opportunity to reduce these negative influences. Seeking blessings from the ancestors on this day is believed to bring peace, prosperity, and mental well-being into one's life.

Why Is Pitra Puja Performed On Ashadha Amavasya?

It is believed that on Amavasya, souls from the Pitra Lok (ancestral realm) visit the Earth. Performing acts of devotion like tarpan, pind daan (offering rice balls), lighting lamps, or donating water with reverence pleases the ancestors. Their blessings help remove obstacles, open pathways for progress, and ensure harmony in the family.

Simple Ways To Please Ancestors On Ashadha Amavasya

• Worship the Peepal Tree: Light a mustard oil lamp beneath a Peepal tree. This is believed to bring peace to the souls of ancestors and resolve personal troubles.
• Perform Tarpan and Pind Daan: After bathing in the Ganges or any sacred river, offer tarpan using sesame seeds, water, flowers, and kusha grass. It is known to provide relief from Pitra Dosha.
• Charity and Good Deeds: Donate items like food, clothes, black sesame, jaggery, umbrellas, and water. Such acts bring merit and maintain ancestral blessings.
• Offer Water to the Sun: Mix black sesame seeds in water and offer it to the Sun God. This helps in pacifying Pitra Dosha.

How To Get Rid Of Pitra Dosha

• If your horoscope indicates Pitra Dosha, you can:
• Bathe in the Ganga or any holy river
• Offer water to the Sun mixed with black sesame
• Perform proper pind daan and tarpan rituals
• Feed green fodder to cows and bread to dogs

What To Avoid On Ashadha Amavasya

• Refrain from consuming tamasic (heavy or non-vegetarian) food
• Do not participate in rituals without bathing
• Avoid donations without remembering your ancestors
• Maintain silence and avoid loud noises during prayers

Ashadha Amavasya is not just another lunar day. It is a soulful occasion to honour our ancestors with heartfelt devotion. Rituals and offerings performed with sincere intentions on this day are believed to usher in positive changes and remove long-standing difficulties from one’s life.
