Margashirsha Purnima 2025: Full moon days hold deep significance in Hindu tradition. It is believed that worshipping Lakshmi-Narayan on this auspicious day brings happiness, prosperity and abundance. The month of Margashirsha is also regarded as the beloved month of Lord Krishna, adding further spiritual value.
The full moon falling in this period is known by several names- Margashirsha Purnima, Agahan Purnima, Battisī Purnima and Mokshadayini Purnima and is especially important as it marks the last Purnima of the year.
This year, Margashirsha Purnima will be observed on December 4, 2025. Devotees from across the country visit holy sites like Haridwar, Varanasi, Mathura and Prayagraj to perform snan (ritual bath) and daan (charity) on this sacred occasion.

To invite the blessings of Goddess Lakshmi on this day, devotees offer red thread, a ‘red chunari’ and raw milk to a Tulsi plant. Lighting a ghee diya both in the morning and evening is considered highly auspicious and is believed to attract prosperity into the home. These practices are said to help fulfil one’s wishes.
Also known as Battisi Purnima, this day carries special importance in Hindu belief. It is said that donations made on Margashirsha Purnima yield 32 times the merit of charity performed on any other full moon day. Those who observe charity, penance and worship on this day are believed to receive the cumulative benefits of virtuous deeds performed throughout the year.
