Shravana Masam 2026: Complete List of Festivals and Auspicious Days

Shravana Masam is regarded as one of the most auspicious months in the Telugu calendar. It is traditionally associated with weddings, religious observances, Mangala Gowri Vratam, Varalakshmi Vratam and Rakhi Purnima, which celebrates the bond between brothers and sisters. The month gets its name from the Shravana star, as the full-moon day is traditionally associated with the Moon’s presence in Shravana Nakshatra. Shravana Masam begins on Thursday, August 13, 2026.
