Dhumavati Panchanga Puja during Chandra Grahana – 03 March 2026

This Chandra Grahana begins at 3:20 PM and continues until 6:47 PM. During this sacred grahana kala, we have arranged to worship Sri Dhumavatyamba through the Panchanga Puja.

Significance of Dhumavati Panchanga Puja During Chandra Grahana

Among the Mahavidyas, Dhumavati embodies the power of the void — the state beyond illusion, where forms dissolve and karmic residues surface to be exhausted. She is the Mother who presides over silence, endings, detachment, and the wisdom born from life’s incompleteness.

During Chandra Grahana, when the Moon — the seat of mind, emotion, and memory — becomes veiled, the subtle unrest within the jiva rises naturally. It is at such moments that Dhumavati is invoked, for her grace does not decorate life with temporary comforts but removes what has become stagnant, obstructive, or karmically exhausted. Worship offered to Her during grahana kala is traditionally regarded as especially potent, as the boundary between the manifest and the unmanifest becomes thin.

Chandra Grahana Parihara for Affected Nakshatras

The nakshatras getting affected of this Chandra Grahana are:
Magha, Purva Phalguni, Uttara Phalguni, Mula, Purva Ashadha, Uttara Ashadha, Ashwini, Bharani, and Krittika.

It is recommended that individuals born under these nakshatras perform appropriate parihara during the grahana period.

Participate in Dhumavati Amba Worship for Grahana Dosha Remedy

Participation in the Dhumavati Panchanga Puja during this time is considered beneficial for pacifying grahana dosha, reducing mental disturbances, diseases with unknown causes and harmonizing karmic influences.

Devotees may offer their sankalpa and participate in the Dhumavati Panchanga Puja performed during this eclipse period, seeking inner clarity, release from stagnation, and the silent protection of the Mother who guides through dissolution toward renewal.
