Why Mauni Amavasya matters
Mauni Amavasya is the new moon of Magha, observed in silence (mauna) with a holy dip — the biggest bathing day of the Magh Mela at Prayagraj. Devotees keep a vow of silence for the day, bathe at dawn and give charity.
How the date is fixed
Mauni Amavasya is the Amavasya of the lunar month Magha (purnimanta). A lunar month is shorter than a solar one, so the Gregorian date moves every year. The observance day follows which tithi is running at sunrise, which is why regional panchangs can differ by a day.
