Pradosham is a highly auspicious day dedicated to Lord Shiva, observed twice every month on the Trayodashi (13th day) of both the waxing and waning moon phases. It is believed that observing Pradosham fasting and performing special Poojas during this time helps remove past karmas, grants divine blessings, and leads to spiritual upliftment. Devotees visit Shiva temples, chant sacred mantras like “Om Namah Shivaya,” and offer milk, Bilva leaves, and other sacred items to the Shiva Lingam. The evening time, known as Pradosha Kalam, is considered the most powerful period for worship, as it is believed that Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati bless devotees during this hour.

In 2026, Pradosham falls on several important dates throughout the year, including highly auspicious weekday-specific Pradoshams such as Shani, Soma, Guru, and Ravi Pradosham. Many devotees observe a strict fast on these days, perform abhishekam for the Shiva Lingam, and engage in spiritual practices to attain peace, prosperity, and overall well-being. Below is the complete and accurate list of Pradosham dates for 2026 to help devotees plan their worship and temple visits.
