Pradosh Vrat Dates 2026प्रदोष व्रत

Next Pradosh Vrat (India)
What is Pradosh Vrat?
Pradosh Vrat is kept on the Trayodashi, the thirteenth tithi of each fortnight, for Lord Shiva and Mata Parvati. The puja belongs to the pradosh kaal, the twilight window around sunset, when Shiva is said to dance in joy and grants wishes readily. Because the window follows the local sunset, the puja muhurat in the tables is computed separately for every city, and it changes with the seasons.
The vrat takes its name from the weekday: Soma Pradosh on Monday, Bhauma Pradosh on Tuesday, and Shani Pradosh on Saturday are held especially powerful. There are two Pradosh in each lunar month, one in each fortnight.

How the Pradosh vrat is kept
- The fast: from sunrise until the evening puja; many keep a fruit and milk fast and break it after the pradosh kaal worship.
- The puja: in the pradosh kaal window shown in the table: abhishek of the Shivling with water, milk and bel patra, deepdan, and the Maha Mrityunjaya or Om Namah Shivaya japa.
- The katha: the Pradosh vrat katha of the day is read, and the weekday form (Soma, Bhauma, Shani) is honoured with its own prayers.
Frequently asked questions
What is the pradosh kaal?
The pradosh kaal is the twilight period around sunset in which the Pradosh puja is performed. It begins near sunset and runs for roughly two and a half hours, so it depends on your city and season. The muhurat column above gives the exact window for each date and city.
What are Soma, Bhauma and Shani Pradosh?
The Pradosh vrat is named for its weekday. Soma Pradosh on Monday is kept for peace of mind and family, Bhauma Pradosh on Tuesday for health and freedom from debt, and Shani Pradosh on Saturday for relief from Shani dosha and for progeny. The tables carry the weekday name of every vrat.
How many Pradosh Vrat are there in 2026?
There are 25 Pradosh Vrat days in India in 2026, one in each fortnight.
Why is the muhurat different in the USA or UK?
The pradosh kaal follows the local sunset, and the Trayodashi tithi can prevail on a different local date abroad. So both the date and the muhurat shift: use the city tables above, which are computed for each city.
