Every month, on the seventh day (Saptami) of the brilliant fortnight (Shukla Paksha), Bhanu Saptami is a lucky day set aside for the worship of Lord Surya, the Sun God. However, Bhanu Saptami becomes extremely potent when it coincides with a Sunday, as it does on April 20, 2025; a cosmic moment when sun energy is at its height, ready to be used for health, success, and spiritual awakening.
Bhanu Saptami becomes even more spiritually powerful and energetically charged this year as it coincides with Tri Pushkara Yoga, Ravi Yoga, and the very uncommon Sarvartha Siddhi Yoga three yogas enhancing manifestation and spiritual practice.
What Makes Bhanu Saptami So Special?
'Bhanu' is the seventh tithi; 'Saptami' is the seventh tithi. Hindu texts say that Bhanu Saptami is the day Lord Surya first lit the cosmos with his beams. Many people thus see it as the Sun's Birthday.
Traditionally, devotees pray for vigor, knowledge, and eradication of karmic darkness; offer Arghya to the Sun; chant Surya mantras such the potent Aditya Hridayam Stotra; and take a holy bath at dawn.
The Triple Boost: Tri Pushkara + Ravi Yoga + Sarvartha Siddhi
Tri Pushkara Yoga
A unique and holy yoga that lets fresh starts produce good results by removing the influence of prior bad karmas. Activities started on this day are thought to have three times the advantages, particularly with regard to spiritual development, investments, and health practices.
Ravi Yoga
Formed when the Moon is five nakshatras away from the Sun, this yoga is said to be quite auspicious for beginning any significant activity. It guarantees long-term success and removes barriers. When used with Bhanu Saptami, it increases sun healing and personal strength.
Sarvartha Siddhi Yoga
The term itself denotes "Fulfilment of All Objectives." Any Sankalpa (intention) taken or action undertaken during this yoga leads to total success, particularly in issues of career, travel, education, marriage, and spiritual sadhana.
Why April 20, 2025, Is Rare and Auspicious
A uniquely strong day is April 20, 2025, as it represents the unusual convergence of Bhanu Saptami with a Sunday both under the Sun, hence enhancing the spiritual power of Surya worship. Simultaneously present with three very auspicious yogas i.e. Tri Pushkara Yoga, which triples the advantages of any deed; Ravi Yoga, famous for removing impediments and improving clarity; and Sarvartha Siddhi Yoga, which guarantees success in all pursuits makes it even more remarkable. Cosmic energies are extremely supportive and enhanced in this unusual alignment, making the day perfect for commencing transformational trips, carrying out spiritual rites, or beginning significant activities.
