🔔 Monday Shubh Muhurat — Auspicious Timings for Shiva Puja
Monday (Chandravaar) is dedicated to Lord Shiva and the Moon. Performing puja at the right muhurat multiplies its spiritual merit manifold.
🌙 Why is Monday Special?
- Soma = Moon; Somvar = Day of the Moon
- The Moon rests in Shiva's matted hair — making Shiva puja most auspicious
- Sawan Mondays: 500× the regular merit (July–August 2026)
- Som Pradosh: Shiva and Parvati bestow special grace on Monday Pradosh Kaal
